BDR-XD08LE Flashing Help

[UnusualPositioning]

Hey all. Super kinda confused about the process of flashing the BDR-XD08 and which files to download where to put them and so on. I have a BDR-XD08LE with a 1.00 firmware that I got off EBay. From my understanding I need to flash it for it to even be able to read 4k UHDs. When I put one in, It reads for a while and then pops open saying, No Disc. Help me out here. What do I download and where do I put it? Thank you very much for any help

Hi!

Sorry to bump this thread, but I've been searching the forums for a way to cross flash this drive and can't find any real info on it. Would you be able to share what you did? PM is totally fine!

Post your Makemkv info.

I could still use help on that too, since I never received a reply after posting my Make MKV info - is there an issue with my drive? thanks

You really should pm Mike admin and ask him if he can add your firmware version to the libredrive compatibility list. He will tell you if he can and what he needs to do so.
