hi there
currently looking at a pioneer PIONEER BDR-XS07TS looking to flash it.
is there anything I need to look out for if purchasing it?
does the model I buy need to be a of a specific firmware? how would I flash it once bought?

What does this mean? if the drive is manufactured during this period is it unable to be flashed?
Re: PIONEER BDR-XS07TS - how to flash
Yes. If the firmware is too new on pretty much any Pioneer drive, it can't be made to work with LibreDrive. It can work for regular blu-rays and DVDs, but not 4K UHDs.
A Pioneer BDR-XS07TS doesn't look it supports UHD by default. If the firmware is old enough, I do not know if it can be made to read UHDs. That would be a question for Billycar11.
Probably the best way to get a Pioneer drive that'll work with UHDs is to get one from a seller in your region.

Re: PIONEER BDR-XS07TS - how to flash
Hi
i got one of those BDR-XS07TS drives back in march for macos. thing is i may have used a flash tool for mac. old habit from pc days when i load any disc, it just reads a second them a crunch sound.. i suspect it has a issue, or it may have been knocked/bumped.
I had been looking for a tool to crossflash the firmware, if still possible, but no idea where to acquire one, or how to use it.

Most likely a power issue. Connect to an USB-C port ors use a powered USB hub.doctorvimto wrote: ↑Fri Oct 18, 2024 12:32 amHi

Regarding the crossflash you need to post your Makemkv info.
