AACS bus encryption

[mike admin]

Update: bus encryption is fully supported in MakeMKV 1.6.13 and beyond. You should not get any bus-encryption errors or messages.

Please be advised that some very recently manufactured BD-drives implement a new AACS "feature" - bus encryption. It's a new form of protection currenly present in a very few BD-drive models that adds additional layer of encryption in drive firmware, similarly like DVD drives switched to RPC-2 firmware. Contrary to what you may read elsewhere, no BD-decrypting software supports these drives yet. If you're a "lucky" owner of such drive, your only option is to wait for MakeMKV update; or to use it with official BD players. You can't even use such drive to make an encrypted disc backup as drive will encrypt M2TS files with a drive-specific key. The problem is only with the drive, and has nothing to with a disc - you should be able to open any BD disc with an older drive.

Known BD drives with bus encryption:

Code: Select all

HL-DT-ST DVDRWBD CH20N A201G
HL-DT-ST BD-RE UH12LS28 1.003
HL-DT-ST BD-RE BE06LU10 YE03

The current MakeMKV version, 1.6.8 would fail with following error message:

Code: Select all

Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:COPY PROTECTION KEY EXCHANGE FAILURE - KEY NOT PRESENT' occurred while issuing SCSI command A30..00200740100720.. ...

The next version of MakeMKV will have more informative error message. And obviously MakeMKV will be updated to work with such drives once they become mainstream.

Hi!

Would this be one more reason to consider making a driver version of MakeMKV available?

The driver version would change nothing - it's just another form of protection that MakeMKV will handle but doesn't handle presently. The reasons not to support this protection right now are not technical ( I can't say more ). If you refer to the famous post on another forum about advantages of a driver model - that's a lie, being a driver has no advantages for this protection.

[setarip_old]

Thank you for clarifying ;>}

[ToxicDreamz]

Thanks for the update. I'm glad my recent Blu-ray drive purchase doesn't fall into this ridiculous category. Thanks for your continued hard work.

[adalogue]

Mine does, ack! Is an updated version of MakeMKV that will handle this less than a year away?

[ddrueding]

Ugh, just bought 3 UH12LS28 drives and sold my old ones before checking this out. I can handle waiting a week or so, but if it is longer than that I'll order different drives.

I've done software development, and I don't mean to rush you at all, just looking for guidance.

[skittle]

please make this a sticky in the news&announcments as well

With current version 1.6.10 my log looks like this:

[DavidTigerFan]

I just bought a drive that turns out to be one of these. Should I just return it if I can?

[ddrueding]

I couldn't wait and bought a USB BD reader in the meantime. I'd assume that since it hasn't been included in the numerous updates that have come out since it's discovery that it is a tricky one to solve.

[DavidTigerFan]

So I swapped the one I had and of course the new one has the same issue. You can add this samsung to the list:

What is the timeframe for getting MakeMKV working for these? I'm tried of buying drives only to find out that they don't work.

[DavidTigerFan]

Yeah, tried AnyDVD out in windows and it works great. Would really MakeMKV work for these drives.
