Hi, I am encountering the following issue while ripping an UHD disc (protection AACS2.0/C v76) with a Pioneer DBR-XS07TUHD drive:

Can't read AACS VID from disc - most likely current AACS host certificate is revoked by your drive
Downloading latest HK to /Users/pietro/Library/MakeMKV ...
Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed.

Note that the status of my LibreDrive appears as "Possible, not yet enabled"

What could be the issue? I am running on a new MacBook Pro with M2 chip, Ventura 13.4.1. Many thanks!

The same issue with the other topics that cover this here on the board, especially on a "new Mac" - your system isn't being allowed to access the server.

Unfortunately, MakeMKV needs to access a site on a "forbidden server", and a lot of people's configurations won't allow that. Setting your DNS to NOT use Cloudflare often fixes this.

(which is strange, because Cloudflare is how you access the forum...)

Regarding your Pioneer drive's LibreDrive status, see this thread: Pioneer firmware update February 2023
