The firmware is past 11/2022 and can't be flashed. Perhaps there's a solution in the future.

Ah, that’s a shame

Ah, that’s a shame

We waited over 2 years for Mike to add LibreDrive support for firmware >= 2022-12. Don't give up on cross-flashing yet ... .

Just wondering if anyone knew if the Pioneer BDR-211XJB with firmware 1.51 (2018) would work for LibreDrive/UHD ripping? I assume it would be because of the firmware date, but I cant seem to find this drive listed on the compatible/incompatible list or the LibreDrive list.

Sorry. Should have been more specific. I don't have this drive. I was thinking about purchasing it. Just wanted to be sure it would work first. Maybe this isnt enough info though?

No one can be sure one way or another until we can see the MakeMKV drive info & libredrive info sections.
