I just got a new Pioneer BDR-212D drive to replace a LG that died. Finding these Pioneer drives is getting hard. I saw that the 212D can be flashed. What is the process to flash this drive?
Thanks.

Re: Flashing Pioneer BDR-212D
PM sent. You need a Windows PC for flashing or a good VM like VMWare.mescalero wrote: ↑Sun Oct 05, 2025 1:22 amI have a Pioneer BDR-212DBK, and would love to flash it. Connected to Linux (Ubuntu), MakeMKV shows the following information (on a Mac there is no OS device name):

Re: Flashing Pioneer BDR-212D
Hi, I got your message, thanks. Unfortunately I do not have access to a Windows machine, but I’m trying to install VMWare on my Mac to see if I can get it to work.
