LG slim BP50NB40 Issue

[melcahoon]

Hello!
I recently purchased this slim LG BD-RE BP50NB40 due to its ability to flash to Libredrive.
I thought I had followed all flashing instructions correctly, and MakeMKV Reports the following:

Drive Information
OS device name: D:
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE BP50NB40
Revision: 1.03
Serial number:
Firmware date: 2120-05-07 09:17
Bus encryption flags: 17
Highest AACS version: 82

LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: MT1959
Firmware type: Patched (microcode access re-enabled)
Firmware version: 1.03
DVD all regions: Yes
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes

However, it cannot read UHD discs, and of course cannot rip them as well. It appears to me that LibreDrive is correct, but I may be wrong.

Anyone have any tips or thoughts here?
Thanks so much!

See guide below or email me or Marty for an automated flasher for it

So this drive is just unable to rip 4K media? I followed the instructions on the guide and it reads regular blu rays just fine but not 4K media.
