Pioneer firmware update February 2023

[Tokyofool]

I have got a Pioneer BDR-212, I am able to use Makemkv to rip some Blu-ray Audio disk, but I think the drive is not LibreDrive enabled yet ...

Can someone provide me instructions on how to get the drive LibreDrive enabled?

Thanks in advance.

Successfully updated the firmware, worked well ripping a 4K disc. Thanks a lot!

Thanks to the help here (especially from @Coopervid), I am able to have my BDR-212V LibreDrive enabled. I then bought a 2nd one-

Can this drive be LibreDrive enabled? I have already got firmware for BDR-S12JBK, can I use the same 2 files? Or I need a different set of firmware?

Thanks in advance

Yes. Also PMed you.

So, I've managed to flash two LG drives that I had in the past couple of months. Both work and allow me to rip UHD. I found a post online where someone had the exact same drive I did, so it was pretty direct and made the process pretty simple with a simple tool and couple of clicks.

That being said, I've now run across this drive in my possession:

Drive Information
OS device name: D:
Manufacturer: PIONEER
Product: BD-RW BDR-XD07
Revision: 1.03
Serial number: ADDL025929UC
Firmware date: 2020-08-20
Bus encryption flags: 13

LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: RS8D30
Firmware name: PIONEER BDR-BDS7
Firmware type: Original (unpatched)
Firmware version: 1.03
DVD all regions: Yes
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes

No disc inserted

Is the drive able to be flashed to read UHD? And if so, what firmware do I need? I've tried to do my due diligence and try to find the answers before posting here, but not coming up with anything easily. I've tried reading a UHD disk as it is now, but it does not work, so I'm assuming I need to flash another firmware on it to make it work?
