Why does it say "BDXL™ Support" then if it doesn't even burn properly?

I also want to Rip 4K movies/media for archive

The LG drives only burn single layer BDs (25GB) OK. If you burn double layer discs (50GB) you will have read errors at the layer break. You will need a Pioneer drive and slow down burn speed to 4x, better 2x, for results without errors around the layer break.

This is what it says about my drive when I open MakeMKV (and yes I want to burn 4K blu rays): Drive Information OS device name: D: Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST Product: BD-RE WH14NS40 Revision: 1.05 Serial number: xxxxxxxxxxx Firmware date: 2120-05-06 14:44 Bus encryption flags: 17 Highest AACS version: 6...

I can see no difference between them ?

Yep, it can be flashed and yes it will be able to read UHD's.

Thanks @MartyMcNuts

Can I just use your guide (SDF tool) and select the 'enc' flag when I flash?

Thanks

Yep, sure can!

Thank you sir!

Hi: I have an BH16NS40 1.0 drive and suddenly its starting failing in burning BR drives. I am using Verbatim BR disk CMCMAG-BA5-000 disk and it burned correctly plenty of them. But, now, when I burn at 4x speed sometimes it finish ...

Hi roflmaonowhow,
Did you manage to get a procedure?
I own a LG BH16NS40 svc ns51 rev 1.03 and would be interested as well!
Thanks.

Flash straight with BH16NS40 1.04mk and then WH16NS60 1.02MK

Also look at drive comparison on my seller page.
