DVRTool v1.0 - firmware flashing utility for Pioneer DVR/BDR drives

[jadburner]

Napisany przez Oinker

Pioneer released a bunch of new firmwares for 212 & 213 series drives V1.05, changes:

Added a new function "Damage Prevention mode for music CD"
Improved operational stability

Still NOT recommended to update due to downgrade & crossflash protections.

Thank you, Oinker. You are correct. Pioneer is doing everything they can to trick owners into flashing and crippling their drives with newer firmware.

Welcome to the forums, dev. Unfortunately, your drive is a BDC-UD03 combo drive, not a BDR-UD03. BDRFlash only supports crossflashing to BDR drives. You will need to work with the MakeMKV developers to see if they can enable support for it.

Hello jadburner and thank you very much.
I'm not sure which type applies to this drive, because the sticker says BDR, but MakeMKV reads BDC.

Thanks for the extra information you provided, dev. We'll work with you to see if we can get your drive crossflashed to a BDR drive. Check your PM.

Yes, I got your replies. As I recall, there's a setting to save copies of messages in your Sent folder. Check your PM for my reply.
