Failed to open disc.

#1 Post by NatalyaI684 » Thu Jul 31, 2025 9:20 am

Hello everyone.
I bought the VERBATIM 43888
Ultra HD 4K External Slimline Blu-ray Writer
USB 3.2 Gen 1 with USB-Ctm Connection
I tried to extract the film Blu Ray 4K UHD "Through the Looking Glass (1976)".
I found the following error:

Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:COPY PROTECTION KEY EXCHANGE FAILURE - KEY NOT ESTABLISHED' occurred while issuing SCSI command AD010..080002400 to device 'SPTI:\Device\CdRom0'
Can't read AACS VID from disc - most likely current AACS host certificate is revoked by your drive
Saved AACS dump file as C:\Users\ALL/.MakeMKV/MKB20_v77_MEL-003UHD_4059.tgz
LibreDrive compatible drive is required to open this disc - video can't be decrypted.

Here's the info…

You're going to need to flash your's drive's firmware to enable LibreDrive before MakeMKV can handle your UHD disk.

The drive needs to be flashed to support LibreDrive before it will rip 4K UHDs. Fortunately, since your drive is a BU40N it is fairly easy and straightforward to do. The Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide has instructions and links to the SDFtool Flasher and the firmware needed. The guide recommends:

BU40N on any Firmware directly to > BU40N 1.03MK

Thank you for helping me.
I am a novice in computer science.
The flasher sdftool tool seems easy to use but I do not understand which steps to flash the firmware
and which bin file to choose.
