BU40N V 1.04

Post by fenton » Thu Jul 15, 2021 12:01 pm

I brought a brand new LG BU40N and the online store is now shipping LG BU40N v 1.04 which is what I received, I tried flashing Dutch firmware and clicked the enc box and it failed, I then tried the makemkv firmware v1.03 and again ticked the enc option with makemkv flasher and it was successful flashing v 1.04, does this mean it should work with makemkv now or will have issues?

What does MakeMKV 'LibreDrive Information' report? IF yours looks something like this, you should be good to go.

Drive is ready to go for UHD w/ MakeMKV. "issues" beyond this remain to be seen.

So far it was successful with little mermaid 4K and the bourne supremacy so I am hoping it will be okay
