LG LibreDrive Information: "with patched version available"

Post by GD 2B KG »

Hello,

I am the new kid on the block and I don't know what I am doing.... Familiar with WinX DVD Ripper Platinum, but I grew up and wanted to back up my Blu-Ray disc....... I'll work with the makemkv software and I'm sure in time I'll understand the strength of this application. But here is something I am totally confused about:

Drive Information
OS device name: E:
Current profile: BD-ROM
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE WH16NS60
Revision: 1.03
Serial number: KLMK99I3657
Firmware date: 2120-05-08 10:10
Bus encryption flags: 17

LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible (with patched firmware)
Drive platform: MT1959
Harware support: Yes
Firmware support: No
Firmware type: Original (patched version available)
Firmware version: 1.03
DVD all regions: Possible (with patched firmware)
BD raw data read: Possible (with patched firmware)
BD raw metadata read: Possible (with patched firmware)
Unrestricted read speed: Possible (with patched firmware)

Disc Information
Label: LOGICAL_VOLUME_ID
Timestamp: 2006-10-21 03:46:26
Data capacity: 27.70 Gb
Disc type: BD-ROM
Number of layers: 2
Channel bit length: 74,5 nm (25.0 GB max. per layer)

Where do I get the FIRMWARE patches for this product????? When I bought the LG drive it came with Cyberlink software, and apparently it had "firmware" to work with the LG drive.... But, how do I satisfy all the "with patched firmware" notifications above.

Appreciate any help you might offer!

You don't need to unless you want to rip 4K UHD Blurays it's not needed for regular blurays or DVD like you got in there
But my guide is linked below on how to do it
Buy a UHD drive from the guide and how to video maker: https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic ... 20&t=17831

Thank you. I'll stick with just Blu Ray for now!
