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.
Thanks, but I don't see any file? Could you provide a download link please, if you cannot upload the file itself? (A MKB_RO.inf file is BIG, so you'd need to ZIP compress it first.)

The forum is showing me an error “Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached”, so I’ll email it to you.

You could still upload it to (say) OneDrive or Google Drive. Check PM?

I released an updated KeyDB Helper version. It should be easier for people to set it up for MKB v82 decryption. It also has some internal bug fixing.

I assume given my drive information any dumps need to go directly to MakeMKV since its a Pioneer?

Also what is so different about the two? technical answer or a heavily broken down answer would be appriciated very curious even when I may only understand like 34% of the explaination.

I answered that in your other thread but I'll answer it here from the best of my understanding. Some Pioneer drives aren't able to provide the VID (Volume ID) for your disc. The VID is combined with an MK (Media Key) to create the VUK (Volume Unique Key). The VUK is then used by MakeMKV to decrypt the Unit Key(s) that decrypt the contents of your disc. Without being able to get the VID, the VUK can't be created. This is my understanding of the situation from what I've read by others.

This is correct for AACS 1.0, but for AACS 2.0 on UHD discs there is more information needed beyond the VID. This info isn't in any dumps from any Pioneer drive, even ones with VIDs.
