Note that HDMI 2.0 does not have enough bandwidth to handle RGB (or YCbCr 4:4:4) at 10 bits (which is apparently necessary for HDR) and the result is exactly as you have seen. Note also that this is not just with an HTPC, e.g. if you set an Oppo 203 to RGB (the default is YCbCr) you get the same de...

After struggling with my very old (12+ years) PC to get it into non AHCI and get DosFlash to read the drive in the Windows 7 USB stick I now have a dump of my drive. My PC doesn't have a setting to labelled IDE or ACHI I actually had to enable Auto Detect / Raid, I vaguely remember having to change...

Thanks again Teddy for all the info. I just got a third Asus BW-16D1HT from Ebay today. Using your instructions and programs with the Windows method it only took me around four minutes to do everything with the drive. What takes a long time is booting to windows from the slow USB drive I'm using. Bu...

I currently have two Asus drives in VANTEC USB 3.0 enclosures. But I would like to be able to add a slim drive to the PC so I could rip three UHD BD titles concurrently. I'd rather get an internal one if possible then another drive in an external case. Because it's much cheaper for the internal driv...

It should work either way though. I've done it both ways without issues. Although I had Any DVD HD decrypt it before using MakeMKV.

I'm seeing slightly faster ripping speeds from my Asus Drives since I removed them from my USB 2.0 enclosures. I had seen up to 30MB/s(240Mb/s) speeds in the USB 2.0 enclosures. But now attached to the SATA ports in a PC I've seen up to 36MB/s (288Mb/s) ripping speeds. But I've still only ripped aro...

Thanks again TeddyRaspin!! I got a second Asus BW-16D1HT. This time from Newegg. I flashed the firmware today, again using you instructions. And it is reading my UHD BDs without any issues. Just like the Asus I got from Amazon. The Newegg drive had a February 2018 Manufacture date just like my Amazo...

I just ordered this drive from Amazon since they have a $25 rebate. You won't see that rebate. Trust me, already been there. I've received rebates from Asus in the past without any issue. Hopefully I'll get this rebate. Especially since I ordered a second Asus BW-16D1HT last night from Newegg. Whic...

Just curious .. anyone ripping to an external USB3 hard drive .. any issues? I am asking this as I do not have a free slot available to plug in an internal drive and would like to connect an external USB3.0 drive and have MakeMKV rip directly to the external drive. Thanks! I'm using a USB 2.0 exter...

Hi guys, here is my own guide to successfully dump and downgrade firmware on any "UHD Friendly" devices, such as Asus BC-12D2HT / BW-16D1HT or LG BH16NS40/NS55 (WH16NS40/NS55) (SVC Code NS50) and similar drives having MediaTek chipset inside them. ......................... Thanks a ton for the info...

I juts ordered this drive from Amazon since they have a $25 rebate. If I get lucky and it has firmware 1.02, am I able to use the clean 1.02 firmware and easily load it? Or do I need to go through the same convoluted process that you need to use for downgrading the firmware? I think you mean the 3....

I just ordered this drive from Amazon since they have a $25 rebate.

If I get lucky and it has firmware 1.02, am I able to use the clean 1.02 firmware and easily load it? Or do I need to go through the same convoluted process that you need to use for downgrading the firmware?

Where is the purchase option located?

Hello, I had an IHBS112 and I was hoping for a faster reader so I got the Pioneer BDR-209D. Turns out that with makemkv, the BDR-209d is often slower than my old ihbs112 with makemkv but is faster with other apps. Last night I found out that BDR-209d couldn't read a disc properly with makemkv that ...
