Re: Changing drive serial number through firmware?

I guess I am going to have to figure out some solution without changing the serial number. Setup time for multiple instances definitely takes longer, but once you know what drive is what, then it is a bit easier. Thanks again. just put the last 4 of the sn on the drive with a label maker or somethi...

Re: Changing drive serial number through firmware?

i think you emailed me about this like i said yes it can be done but only to lg/asus drives and you would need to use dosflash. but this has other side effects like this: https://forum.redfox.bz/threads/right-fw-for-bu40n.88018/page-3#post-623812 it seems to have no negative effects but still i woul...

Re: Good cost efficient start to Blu Ray rip

Some people around here don’t like them, but you can get the LG WH14NS40 for around that price, and they’re relatively easy to flash yourself. That’s what I’ve been using, and it has ripped every disc in my collection (4K, Blu-ray, and DVD) just fine. How do I install it on my computer or Jerry rig...

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

Hey there, I´m new to the Forum, but not to the Software. Have bought an Asus BW-16D1HT, but that doesn´t seem to be very good from what I have read here. Are there other drives that you could recommend to a german Blu-Ray enthusiast? :D 4K Ripping capabilities would be much appreciated, but long l...

Re: movie stops playing after 33 seconds

likely just the dumb tv "smart tvs" are junk use an nvidia shield or a computer hooked up to it.
usb2 is fine for 4K its 480mbps most movies just barely peak above 100mbps

you also could have a fake usb drive seen that quite a few times

Re: Days of Future Past

If it is a bad drive then why do some discs work and some don't Because different Blu-rays are actually different data density. Some are bd25 others are bd50 for UHD to goes up to bd100 So maybe it just won't read the higher density discs. Sadly I have seen many more bad drives than I have seen bad...

Re: Days of Future Past

OK, I had some more discs come in: The Martian Blu Ray Star Trek 2: Blu Ray John Wick None of them will load. I pulled out another blu ray (Now You see Me) and it loaded. Sounds like it is an issue with the discs or how they are being read. I would say drive power issue or bad drive. For power use ...
