The BW-16D1H-U Pro has different hardware depending on when it was built. Older ones do not do UHD, newer ones can (with firmware updates).

What does MakeMKV show for your drive information?

That's a Pioneer drive, which should NOT be updated with "modern" (from Pioneer) firmware, due to their anti-piracy stance. But, I'll let others go into the details on that.
