Re: Asus BW-16D1HT Firmware
Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2018 3:41 pm
I can testify to the fact that I only use 3.01 or 3.00. I don't trust multiple releases using the same version numbers
That's not how this works. Between the two 3.02 firmware revisions released by ASUS either the loophole is present and allows for ripping or it's been patched/fixed and disallows ripping. It's black and white. No gray area where some discs will work and some will not.
Thanks for sharing this.
here are the instructions viewtopic.php?f=16&t=17058 if you cant do it contact me ill do it for you

You either have the "clean" revision or you don't, in which case you need to downgrade to a previous version or flash the clean revision of 3.02 if you don't.

With all the ASUS love going on you'd think so, but no, it's just the only firmware in the market that's worth usingziggyspider wrote: ↑Thu Sep 20, 2018 6:28 amThis is the only Drive in the market that rip 4K discs?

Lots of information on downgrading. I just purchased my drive (BW-16D1HT) on amazon retail box. It seems to come with 3.03. Does this firmware work as a standalone firmware down grade or do i still have to get a dump and modify 3.02 firmware to a test.bin?TeddyRaspin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2018 7:14 pmYou can find it here.ron spencer wrote:I have 3.01...can anyone point me to 3.02, which I guess is the last "safe" version to use. Are people ripping UHD fine with 3.02. I'd just like to be sure.
