I'm also looking for the flasher so the 212dbk will be UHD capable.

Hi @Coopervid,

I also have both a 212DBK and a 212V. If possible I'd like the option to be able to cross flash between the UHD-capable firmware and the DBK and V firmware. Is it possible to dump the original firmware from the drive for re-upload later?

Hey guys

I bought BDR-212DBK from Taobao.
The seller pre-flashes the firmware of BDR-S12JX.
It works out of the box and I used it to back up my TOP GUN UHD BD.
I also have LG BU40N and WH16NS58D, but I cannot backup TOP GUN. And very noisy.

Hi Coopervid,

I have the following drive:

Product: BD-RW BDR-212V
Revision: 1.02
Serial number:

If there's a firmware or flasher available to enable UHD support, would appreciate the pointer (presumably via PM).
