Unable to Rip 4K Blu-ray

Post by Riker7323 »

Hello.

I'm using Linux Mint 22.1, have an external 4K Blu-ray UltraHD payer by LG.

I'm trying to Rip MCU's "Hawkeye" season 1.

I'm getting error messages. Specifically....

LibreDrive compatible drive is required to open this disc - video can't be decrypted.
Failed to open disc

and (multiple of these illegal request lines."


Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:COPY PROTECTION KEY EXCHANGE FAILURE - KEY NOT ESTABLISHED' occurred while issuing SCSI command AD010..080002400 to device 'SG:dev_21:2'
Can't read AACS VID from disc - most likely current AACS host certificate is revoked by your drive

The last 4k disc i tried went off w/o a hitch.

Is there anything I can do, or should I just break down and buy the DVD version too, if it can be found.

Thanks

You need to flash the drive's firmware to make it LibreDrive-compatible. MakeMKV's "Info" window probably says that LibreDrive is currenly disabled.

Can you post the contents of MakeMKV's "Info" window please? You should probably redact your drive's serial number though.

The alternative to using LibreDrive would be to obtain a valid AACSv2 host certificate from AACS-LA. I don't know what you would need to do to achieve this, but I suspect it would include sacrificing your first-born at some point...

What's your makemkv drive info? Don't forget to redact / delete the serial number before posting

Seems like you need to flash MK firmware for your drive to unlock 4k UHD rips.

You will need BP60NB10-1.02-MK, in a single flash step, it is encrypted so don't forget the enc flag.

You can follow my guide here to get makemkv v1.17.7 running without touching your original install viewtopic.php?f=3&t=40977
