Enabling LibreDrive on new ASUS BW-16D1HT v3.11

[cbope]

Hi

I just purchased a new ASUS BW-16D1HT and installed it yesterday. It has firmware 3.11 from the factory, here are the details from MakeMKV:

Drive Information
OS device name: \Device\CdRom0
Current profile: BD-ROM
Manufacturer: ASUS
Product: BW-16D1HT
Revision: 3.11
Serial number: KL5O15B4942
Firmware date: 2120-12-01 17:59
Bus encryption flags: 1F
Highest AACS version: 76

LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible, not yet enabled
Drive platform: MT1959

I want to enable LibreDrive. I did a bit of research here and it seems I need to re-flash the drive using the SDFtool Flasher 1.3.5. I also downloaded Marty's firmware pack and found version 3.10 MK file in it for this drive. Is this the version I should use, or is there a 3.11 MK version available? Does it matter?

Obviously I don't want to bork my new drive.

I'm on Windows 11 if it matters, latest 23H2 build. I plan to use Handbrake to encode for playback through Kodi.

Thanks!
