Hello all,

Not sure if my last post is awaiting moderation or has been lost in the nether.

I just picked up one of these, flashed it with the firmware from this thread, using the 'modified Asus / LG flasher" as that was the only flasher I could find anywhere on the forum. It seems to have worked, and the drive now shows LibreDrive details in MakeMKV, but I get 'Loading' and then 'No disc' - I tried Logan and Warcraft, same from both. Debug log shows -

Code: Select all

what firmware did your drive come with BN12 or did you have the EU version of this drive?

Hello, as an update I confirm than the firmware BN12 doesn´t work for me, I flashed the DE_LG BU40N_1.00.bin firmware and all is working fine now
