Hello. I have a Pioneer BDR-TD05 drive inside of a Logitec casing (LBD-PME6U3). Logitec offered firmware up to 1.02, which I installed over the stock 1.00.
It's able to read standard BluRay videos, but if I try to burn 128GB Quad-Layer SONY BDXL discs, it's incompatible (ImgBurn reports "Incompatible Medium Installed"). The unit has a external power as well as USB, so I thought external power would fix it, but it didn't.
I believe this issue is because of the firmware. My firmware is dated 2014, while the discs were only beginning to be manufactured in 2018. I downloaded every Logitec and Pioneer firmware available on their respective websites and parsed the firmware microcode file headers to see if there is a model with the same "Hardware Version", but there wasn't any.
I found a mysterious 2.02 firmware on Fujitsu's website for the BDR-TD0. Fujitsu is using their own firmware flasher rather than the signed Pioneer one, and it's reporting my device as incompatible, though the microcode file embed in the flasher is the same format.

Are there any newer or alternative firmwares available for this drive that could enable 128GB quadlayer BDXL?
