Hi, I've recently purchased an external blu-ray drive (ASUS BW-16D1X-U) and when I was trying to flash it before ripping the BD-RE XL disk, it came across a red cross next to MT1959 platform and the encrypted firmware was not displaying after I chose the firmware (DE_ASUS_BW-16D1HT_3.10_MK.bin) to write, my Drive and LibreDrive information are as follow:
