I have a Pioneer BDR 212BK I am hopeful that Libredrive can be enabled. I really just want to be able to process Bluray disks, no real need to process UHD but I'll partner with Billy on that is needed.

I'm running Makemkv V1.18.4 and I see that LibreDrive shows possible, not yet enabled. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I have a Pioneer BDR-X12 with firmware 1.03 (ID56 / RS9000 platform) on a Mac. I am facing immediate disc ejection with 4K UHD discs.
I have a Windows laptop ready to flash the drive.

Could you please provide the correct customized clean firmware pack for my drive?

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi, I have a Pioneer BDR-XS07TUHD with firmware 1.03. seems work normally, but with few specific blurays seems have problems. I have a BDR-XS07TS fw 1.01 and seems work well. Do you know if there are problems with that firmware on XS07TUHD?
