Post by georgesgiralt »

Hello,
A friend of mine gave me this one :

Code: Select all

Informations lecteur
Nom du lecteur SE : /dev/sr0
Fabricant : HL-DT-ST
Produit : BD-RE BU40N
Révision : 1.03
Numéro de série : XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Date micrologiciel : 2118-10-24 19:34
Marqueurs d'encryptage bus : 17

Is it the "BU40N 1.03MK" firmware ? There is no MK anywhere....
Sorry if this is a dumb question.

I did not try it yet since I do not own any 4K BD.

Yes it is. That firmware is in the "OLD" folder.

If ithe firmware type is "Patched" then it is a MK firmware. You are good to go. Start ripping!
