BD-RE BU50N firmware flash

[glorifieduk]

Hi everyone,

I have an external 4k BD drive that I'd like to get "Libre-drived" but I want to make sure I'm doing this right before I brick it! Here are the drive details:

Drive Information
OS device name: F:
Current profile: BD-ROM
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE BU50N
Revision: GE03
Serial number: ***********
Firmware date: 2118-01-22 14:36
Bus encryption flags: 1F
Highest AACS version: 61

LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible, not yet enabled
Drive platform: MT1959

I have downloaded the SDF Flash Tool v1.3.5
I have downloaded mk-firmware-pack-20200720 and can see the MK file for the BU50N in there
I have the originally generated tar file as that seems to have been useful on other posts: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

From what I've read, I should now select my drive, choose WRITE, select the MK FW File and go for it?

Thanks!
