Thanks for the info. I'm probably looking to get a UHD drive soon and start ripping the 4k discs I have so far.
And I noticed on the outer edge of the disc from my first set, there was a slight discoloration on the playing side. Slightly yellowed region about 3/16“ in from the edge going around about 1/3 of the circumference.
I posted on the other thread about my experience with the Pioneer BDR-XD07UHD drive. It works fine on my Macs. I don't use a separate AC adapter, either, it's been fine powered off of USB. No problem with UHD discs.Thanks for posting Mark about your experience doing a UHD disc. This is really good info!
Since you‘re running Windows, I’m curious to do the same on my Macintosh. As I mentioned earlier, I also have a Pioneer drive, so I can see how that works. I’ll post when I try out a UHD disc.
Is the drive labeled as a UltraHD drive? If so it should work. The ones not sold as UltraHD won't work and can't be flashed like the LG drives can. For instance there is a non-UHD Pioneer BDR-XD07B version of the BDR-XD07UHD that doesn't have the UHD capability.Greg, thanks for the link to your post about Pioneer drives in Macs. Great to hear you can do UHD discs fine. The one I have is an internal drive mounted inside my Mac Pro.
I just make the main version of the movie I'll be most likely to watch the main feature and put any alternate versions in the "Other" extras folder. Not ideal but keeps the folders neater with only one entry for a movie.
