Re: SDFtool Flasher

Hi @Marty McNuts I just bought a ASUS BW-16D1HT BD drive which is connected to my Apple MacBook Pro via a mulit-port hub. I run Windows 11 through Parallels. I downloaded the SDFtool Flasher (v1.3.5) and I am unable to flash to DE_ASUS_BW-16D1HT_3.02.bin because the tool doesn't seem to recognize t...

Re: Simple flashing guide questions, Re: WH14NS40...

Hi, all. I just got the WH14NS40 model and the stickers say manufactured 2024, NS50 and firmware 1.05. Does this mean I need to do the sidegrading thing due to encryption? This is where I get a bit lost. What is sidegrading? I'm not sure what exact steps to take and which firmware I need. I tried t...

I have the USA Bluray of The Emperor's New Grove and Kronk's New Groove combo disc. I am trying to upload the folder for the key but I am getting "
Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached."
Dumps should not be uploaded here. They should be emailed to svq@makemkv.com

Yep. It tells you at the top of the post.

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2023

First post and I registered here for this. Long time read, first time poster. Appreciate all the hard work that has gone into this guide. I used it myself several years ago when I got my drive. So I recently discovered an issue that was not there before and I am curious if anyone else is seeing it....

Did you had to check "Enc" when flashing directly from WH16NS40 1.05 to WH16NS60 1.02-MK? Thank you!
If using the latest version of SDFtool Flasher, the encrypted flag is automatically applied when required. You should see a green tick for both drive platform and encrypted firmware.

Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives

Hi all, I just got a new pioneer BDR-UD03 1.14, ripped a blu-ray straight with makemkv with no problems. But when I put a UHD Disk into the drive it spits it back out after like 10-15 seconds. Anybody able to help me or point me in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Laufwer...

Re: SDFtool Flasher error

Coopervid's comments: "Is this an AMD PC? Or have you it connected to an port that is provided by an additional chip? Then switch ports." 1) This is an Intel PC. 2) There are 4 SATA ports on the motherboard. This drive is plugged into the same one previously occupied by my last DVD player...

Re: Recommendation for best (most reliable and versatile) LibreDrive for 2024?

So, a drive needs to be flashed for LibreDrive features whether you want to rip UHD or not? Is LibreDrive necessary for any type of BluRay, or does it just make the ripping faster/less error prone? Libredrive is required for UHD ripping. For standard BD, it isn't needed but when enabled, it does st...

First 3x S13J-X drives out of an order for 6 arrived 2 days after they were shipped.

Super quick turnaround. Great communication and drives arrrived well packaged and in perfect condition. All on 1.03 and libre drive enabled.

I think these drives are perhaps the pinnacle of optical drive design. Probably over the top really but it’s so nice when a company literally goes out and tries to make the absolute best thing they can in a field. Quite common in Japan and these drives are just like that. Super quiet regardless of read speed.

Really beautiful pieces of engineering. So glad I bought 6 of them and I can’t guarantee I won’t come back to Marty for some more 😂.

Thanks again Marty! I highly recommend Marty for anyone in Asia!
Awesome! Thanks.

Re: UHD-100 Discs fail - not all

I’m starting to see that my UHD-100 discs fail to load on my drive. Strangely some discs works perfectly and others just comes back with “No Disc” Once that work includes: The Train (Kino Lorber) The Body Snatchers (1978) (Kino Lorber) Discs that don’t: 12 Angry Men (Kino Lorber) Lawrence of Arabia...
