Any chance to downgrade to 1.03 ?

[zittrig]

No, sorry. The firmware is newer then November 2022. All Pioneer drives which could be 4k friendly with the right firmware but were flashed to a firmware 12/22 or newer are out of the game.

My firmware says 2020-07-21 as its date. So i should be good?

I'm sorry, i've tried to read up about it today but there is so much info, i am at a bit of a loss currently.

Make sure you check the "Force Flash" box.

Sorry. I just learned a few days ago that the RS859x firmware belongs to a BD combo and not a BD writer (RS851x). So your drive can't be flashed. Only writers can be flashed for reading UHDs.

Ok, Thank you anyway
