Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives
I seem to have found a drive (sold as BDR-212XJ) which isn't on the SDF supported list, and isn't even on the list of drives for which you do not have a firmware file. I've sent in the firmware dump to the support email.
Incidentally, this drive supports BDXL but not UltraHD. Is there any chance it can be cross-flashed to get UHD support?

Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives
I recently bought a BDR-XS07B-UHD which fits the criteria for a libredrive but it looks like its not enabled yet. How can I get this drive to libredrive status, if possible?

Just try an UHD in both drives and report back. Both should work. For the S13U you need to enable Internet access for makemkv to load the newest SDF.bin and then shut down, wait and reboot.niopio wrote: ↑Wed Dec 31, 2025 4:48 pmI am totaly lost, can any or both of my drives rip uhd? or what can they do? thanks

Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives
The S13U is already enabled and ready to rip UHD discs. Not sure about the other one. Give it a try.niopio wrote: ↑Wed Dec 31, 2025 4:48 pmI am totaly lost, can any or both of my drives rip uhd? or what can they do? thanks

Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives
Hi all,
Curious if I can new FW for my drive? Just created an account so I can't message anyone directly.
I have an LG WH14NS40 that's been my go-to for the last few years. But as you know, it's only going to get harder to acquire drives now that everyone has exited the industry. managed to snag this BDR-XD05 on eBay for a decent price and want to make sure I have a reliable backup.
Thank you to everyone who's made this possible!
