Has anybody tried a BDR-X13U-S (or any of their more recent drives) with firmware 1.02? There's an update available here: https://pioneer.jp/device_e/product-e/i ... #firmware1 but I don't want to upgrade my 1.01 drive and find out it's a problem, since you apparently cannot downgrade afterwards.
It does. But it failed to rip a UHD disc with some errors (same disc I was able to rip with the previous firmware). That said, non-UHD discs worked just fine.

I take that back. UHD discs worked after restarting MakeMKV. So weird... Maybe it needed to download the latest SDF again? I will keep testing but every type of disc seems to be working now with the new firmware.
I am trying to decide to purchase BDR-XD08UMB-S directly from Pioneer USA to rip my 4K collections. But reading here on the forums, I am not sure if this drive is confirmed to work with MakeMKV with or without any firmware updates. Can someone on this forum confirm if they are able to rip 4K-UHD movies using this drive?
The XD08U 1.00 firmware is supported by Makemkv. If you drive comes with a newer firmware it will be couple of days after submitting the report Makemkv generates for your drive and submitting that.

I noticed some are selling Pioneer BDR-212EBK cross flashed to BDR-S12UHT to make it UHD friendly.
Is there guide availabe for to do it myself as I could not find one? I have such drive lying around and I would like to try.
