Unable to read DVD for region code after flashed to MK Firmware

Post by soild79 » Wed Jul 06, 2022 1:10 pm

Hi All

Need you advise on how to really flashed my Buffalo Slim Dvd External Drive to be region free.

I have used the SDFtool to flash and it's seem to completed successfully and from the MKV program it displayed DVD all region: Yes but i still can't read my DVD

Previous i have used the HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-BN12-0M01001-211905141415 to flash.

The disc is loaded on the windows side.
Still no luck, it is stuck at this scanning process and the drive went to idle state after some time.
Btw i also can't play the DVD using VLC but i have tried to use a trial DVD rip software that allow all region read and it seem fine.
This mean that my All Region is not really working or enable.
