Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2021

Hello, I’ve read it carefully - several times over in fact - but it is still not the easiest thing to follow. Sorry to trouble you :) I am still not quite understanding the difference between FWs 1.00 & 1.02MK for the WH16NS60, or which is better/why, but as I’ve already successfully flashed to...

However, it can also sometimes take several days or longer. When you submit a dump, ensure that: - You are using the latest version of MakeMKV...

Re: HB 1.4.0b1 (on M1) integration option grayed out

I believe MakeMKV must be registered to use that feature. Try applying the beta key (Help > Register).

MakeMKV is free while in beta

Is there a way to combine separate files that come from 2 different discs (Titanic and Pearl Harbor were divided into two discs). Thanks!

Re: BH16NS55 Firmware

Hello, I have just flashed my BH16NS55 drive with the sdftool Flasher and got an error. Now the drive has stopped responding. Even if I turn it off and on, I can no longer open the drive and the lamp does not light up either. Has the drive been broken now or can I still salvage it? Gonna need a tad...

Re: LG WH14NS40 Stopped Reading Disc

Could be the blue laser died, but before declaring 'time of death', try... IF it's an external drive, remove power for~10sec, re-power & test. IF it's an internal drive, shut down the PC (NOT just a reboot), remove power for~10sec, re-power/boot & test. Some users have had success recoverin...

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2021

The last 2 posters reference, had you carefully read the 1st post in this thread (Billycar11 works diligently to keep it current) , starting from encrypted FWs. This requires flashing w/ either Mike's command line tool, or the SDFtool Flasher, w/ the 'enc' option selected.
