Pioneer Blu-Ray Drive Suggestions

#1 Post by jommy » Tue Jul 18, 2023 7:08 am

I was looking at purchasing a Pioneer BDR-XS07UHD and wanted to know if it is compatible with MakeMKV for 4k Blu-Rays right out of the box. I would go for a BDR-XD07UHD but those are over £400 whilst the BDR-XS07UHD is just £210 and my goal is to spend as little as possible to get into ripping Blu-Rays over DVDs. All I know based on my research is that some Pioneer drives work out of the box for ripping such as the XD07UHD whilst other don't and that only UHD drives can read UHD discs.

They are unlikely to work out of the box
Your best bet if your in Europe since you listed price in euro is to buy from Asmcom viewtopic.php?f=20&t=19387
