Are there dumps of Pioneer firmwares?

Post by dnsrs »

Just curious if there is a way to, or if anyone has, firmware dumps for these drives, specifically the old (before 12/22) firmware for the BDR-212V. Any information on this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Alright, as long as someone out there has it I'm happy. Thanks again for letting me know!

Just think! A company that sells UHD drives at a premium doesn't like to have (crippled) cheaper drives to be upgraded.
