I don't believe that this particular model is UHD-friendly unless you can cross-flash it to BDR-XD07UHD.

Happily, your firmware pre-dates December 2022 and so I believe such cross-flashing should be possible.

Please don't attempt to flash your drive without first consulting someone who knows precisely what to do.
