Re: James Cameron UHDs

Same issues with Aliens on all 3 of my drives. Replacement should be arriving today.

Abyss and True Lies were okay, though. Introduced my son to True Lies the other night, and it looked fantastic. Nice to get that ragged-looking DVD off my shelf. :D

Re: UHD discs decrypting

Yeah, I had just done that, but no luck with vanilla MakeMKV. Tried Any DVD and it worked.

Re: UHD discs decrypting

Hmm. Well, shoot. Downloaded the keycfg, moved it into the MakeMKV folder in my user profile, and still no joy trying to open True Lies. My hash seems to be different than everyone else; maybe I got a different version?

Re: Infinity War

Update: found a BP50NB40 on the shelf at my local Best Buy for $104; a couple of firmware flashes later it successfully ripped Infinity War and a few other UHDs I picked up on my trip. Always good to have a backup! :D

Re: Flashed UHD-Friendly Drive Still Won't Read UHD Discs.

I was having the same issue thinking that I had an NB50 drive, but there was an NB52 code on the side of the box. Live and learn!

Do I need to use the command-line to flash to the HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BP60NB10-1.02-NM00800-212005070935.bin version firmware from where I am now?

Infinity War

I've seen several posts of others having problems with Infinity War, but those threads kind of petered out without a solution. My drive (Asus BW-16D1HT with firmware 3.10) flawlessly rips every other disk I've thrown at it. I've tried three different copies of Infinity War, and they all fail at the ...

Re: What are your playback setups?

Its not Plex that's the problem, it's the Roku Ultra. I have one and it would always take forever to start playing and buffer randomly. Its also connected via gigabit ethernet so i knew the network wasn't the issue. I went out and bought the NVidia Shield and it works flawlessly. Instantly starts p...

What are your playback setups?

I'm having fairly good success using MakeMKV and my Asus drive to GET UHD MKVs. The problem, then, is getting them to play back. I have a Roku Ultra, but it and Plex seem to struggle with streaming, even over a wired Gigabit network. I'm guessing that Plex is more the issue than the Roku, since the ...
