I noticed with the LG’s they all generally use the same file same for pioneers? Is this drive basically a scaled down 212 or are there legitimate hardware differences?

Email me your makemkv drive info section
Flasher and fw are completely different

Is there anyone that has written a guide or a youtube video on how to flash a drive attached to an unraid server? I have MakeMKV installed in a docker container. I'll post my drive info below, new to all this so any help would be appreciated. I'm assuming the gui doesn't work for me as well like it does on windows.

Trying to flash a new BU40N (LG) from 1.05 to 1.03, using Terminal on MacOS. I'm getting a Drive Not Found error. It definitely sees it in the cmd just before. Would someone please take a look and see if perhaps I'm doing something wrong? TIA!
