Get UHD Access From the E116 Version of ASUS BW-16D1H-U?

Post by GDNCHN! »

Drive Information
OS device name: H:
Manufacturer: ASUS
Product: BW-16D1H-U
Revision: E116
Serial number:
Firmware date: 2020-07-21
Bus encryption flags: 1B
Highest AACS version: 82

LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: RS8F00
Firmware name: PIONEER BDR-212T
Firmware type: Original (unpatched)
Firmware version: E116/ID71
DVD all regions: Yes
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes

The biggest difference between my drive and the common ones is that its firmware is "E116", compared to the often-seen ones with "E114" or "E115" firmware. But since the LibreDrive is enabled, I put an UHD disc inside. Surprisingly, after a while of reading, MakeMKV just simply told me that there is "No Disc" inside. That's awful. What should I do, or which firmware should I patch since its chip is not MT1959?
