UHD FAQ

[SamuriHL]

One more update for the KeyDB Helper. This one locally validates the unit key(s) for your disc and if the locally validated data doesn't match the keydb, it updates the keydb entry for your disc and runs a findvuk validatedisc to update the entry. This allows people to fix bad entries in the keydb.

Does it also run findvuk validatedisc for entries with (LEGACY) and/or (NOTVALIDATED) in the comment? Might be useful to run it for those as well.

Yes. Please do for both uhd and bd! Just running disc info is enough. My tool takes care of the rest and will auto run validate if it needs to.

Sorry for all the new versions but it was quite a big internal code change recently. I just posted what should be the last version for quite a while of the KeyDB Helper. All known bugs are squashed. If you find anything let me know. Enjoy!

It contains a mediafire link to download the file. Worked fine for me.

The link on the page, if you hover over it or click on it points to the URL I listed above - the actual link in the post is broken.

I agree that if you copy/paste the text from the post in a browser, it does download the file, but the link as posted in the message is broken.

I didn't click the link. I right clicked and downloaded with my DL manager. Worked fine.

I'll re-paste it later. Looks like it may have screwed up the copy and paste but it should work as mentioned.

Hi, I'm still fairly new to all this. I have been using an LGBP50BN40 for a while and I stumbled across a Pioneer BDR-S13U-X that said it was UHD. However, after finally getting it working through some issues related to connecting an internal BDR to a laptop, I went through the forums to find it is not supported due to the version being 1.05, my question is in regard of future support potential. Will these drives with the higher versions ever get support to be able to work with mkv or find a work around to flash them. I do know that with current knowledge there is no chance for it to happen right now, but I am hopping there is a possibility for it to work in the future. (note: I cannot return it unfortunately, I could possibly find other ways to use it, just not the way I wanted to at this time)

The short answer is maybe, but probably not.

You, sir, (SamuriHL), are a hero. Worked like a champ, on my first attempt, on a Blu-Ray with new AACS encryption. TYTYTY!

Now, how's about some firmware code to make my disc reader handle SACDs?

HEH I don't take any credit. My tool simply makes it easier and more convenient for people to use the tools doing the real work. FindVUK deserves a ton of praise. LIBAACS does a lot of heavy lifting. And the person who posted that MKBV82 device key is the real hero. All I did was slap a marginally useful UI around FindVUK and aacskeys with a little homebrew magic of my own. Nonetheless, I am glad it helped you out! That's the whole point of it.

Hello Mike,

I tried to rip the Titanic 4K UHD Blu-ray with MakeMKV v1.18.1. My drive is a Pioneer BDR-UDD4 with LibreDrive enabled.

MakeMKV generated a .tgz file because it couldn't decrypt the disc.

Here is the attached file: MKB20_77_Titanic_ECB3.tgz

Thanks in advance for your help!

You need to email that .tgz file to svq@makemkv.com.

Thanks for providing this dump file . Can you also provide the AACS/MKB_RO.inf file from your physical UHD disk please? The copy of this file inside your TGZ dump file has been truncated to only 56 bytes, which makes it unusable to anyone except MakeMKV itself.

Would you also have access to another UHD drive please? The BDR-UD04 (Verbatim 43888?) doesn't create a TGZ dump file that The Powers That KEYDB can use .

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

Here is the requested file, missing from the previous .tgz, for the *Titanic 4K* UHD disc with the complete file MKB_RO.inf.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you need any other information.

Thank you for your work!
