Hello all! First off, thankful for this community and apologies for typing in English. I was lucky enough to come across 3 kinds of pioneer drives within the last couple months and much like others, have been having a hard time finding instructions or the appropriate firmware to flash the pioneer drives to rip 4k uhd in make mkv or if any of these 3 are already ready to go. I am thankful of any help people may be able to provide. I didn't have any issues flashing other LG drives. These are the 3 types of pioneer drives I have. Thanks!

Hello! Here is a BDR-208DBK. It was made 07/2013 and is quite older than a BDR-211. There is no BDXL label on it's tray panel. I am wondering if this drive may be capable for UHDs also? I assume someone has unfortunately already done a firmware update in the past:

Hi guys, first of all, sorry for posting in english. I've got the following drive:


Is there any chance to crossflash this drive such that it supports UHD discs? If so, I'd highly appreciate if there's a chance for me to get the flasher and the firmware :)

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello @billycar11
I sent you a private message 2 days ago. Perhaps you didn't got it ?

Hello @Coopervid,

Don't worry, I didn't pay @billycar11 (and that's a good thing, because I'm pretty broke right now!). I did, however, pay for my MakeMKV license.

In fact, jabdburner provided me with the flashing software, the appropriate firmware file, and the instructions (it's pretty straightforward).
Everything went as planned, the only thing I couldn't do was back up the old firmware

Now I can play 4K UHD movies on my Pioneer player. A mega big thank you to @jadburner and you!

NB: I do have one question, though ... Is there an RPC-1 version of the BDR-211UBK firmware?
