greetings..

Been using earlier releases on trial basis..no problems at all converting blue rays. 50+ burned.

Got round to paying and now on MakeMKV v1.6.14 win(x64-release)

... First two films I have tried with this version (The Wrestler, Harry Potter 5).. report the folowing :


Drive BD-ROM PLEXTOR BD-ROM PX-B120U 1.06 has RPC protection that can not be bypassed. Change drive region or update drive firmware from http://tdb.rpc1.org. Errors likely to follow.


Did dig aronud, but cant find the firmeware for my model.

But it does seems a bit wierd that this worked perfectly fine with same BR drive in earlier version of makemkv..

Then I update to new version and get errors on first 2 films i have tried. Telling me its a drive issue...

Hi!

If you re-try one or two of your earlier original, commercial Blu-ray discs that previously worked successfully with MakeMKV, does the current version of MakeMKV handle them properly?

This means that this particular drive is a bad choice for reading DVDs with mismatched region. Try copying these discs (as they should be rare) on another drive.

The Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide includes a list of recommended drives if you're going to buy a new drive.

Any way to solve the problem without buying a new drive?

If your discs are mostly the same region you can try changing the region to match the discs
