Pioneer bdr 209 and Pioneer bdr 209m

[Billycar11]

hey, i got a bdr-209m on a tri-boot mac pro 5,1.
the drive works well and plays blu-rays (not uhds) efficiently on both
macos with the macgo bluray player and win10 with the makemkv+vlc workaround,
however, i havent managed to make it work on ubuntu.
was wondering of the functionalities gained by flashing the drive with your fw packages
and if it would retain full compatibility with the oses (id appreciate some help with the ubuntu situation)
and finally, your recommendations regarding bluray/uhd player/bdxl burner apps for all oses.
thanks!

Sure email me your makemkv drive info section see below for email
only benefit to the fw is it will also do UHD the rest is all just config for having makemkv integration on linux work
