DVD all regions, suddenly not yet enabled?

Post by Ezatoka » Sun Feb 13, 2022 1:26 am

Hi everyone.

I have an ASUS BW-16D1HT and for a long time, MakeMKV always showed me this:
LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: MT1959
Firmware type: Patched (microcode access re-enabled)
Firmware version: 3.10
DVD all regions: Yes
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes
I can say for sure, that it was this way one month ago.

But today I noticed, that suddenly it is presented this way:
LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: MT1959
Firmware type: Patched (microcode access re-enabled)
Firmware version: 3.10
DVD all regions: Possible, not yet enabled
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes
The DVD all regions is suddenly only Possible, not yet enabled. I did not change anything with the firmware in the meantime.

Upon start, MakeMKV downloaded the latest SDF. Did something change in there?

Mike has enabled a bunch of Pioneer drives to be able to rip UHDs.

What you're seeing might be an unintentional bug as a result.

Oh, I've introduced a bug with bunch last changes. This is a 'display' bug, your drive still support all regions, it is just wrong information that is displayed. Will fix with a next update.
