Grabbed one last week sold by Amazon.com. I successfully flashed it to the 1.02MK firmware using this USB adadpter:

and was able to rip a UHD title with MakeMKV.

Keep in mind that if you have a 12th gen Intel, you won't be able to use this to play standard or 4K Blu-ray movies on your PC because Intel removed some required HDCP security thing from their newest chips (citing that the HDCP handshake protocol is a security vulnerability).

Lol. No home internet here. No home cable. No home satellite. Never had, never will.

Phone for the YouTube, ots hdtv broadcasts, or discs on the lg player here. (And with local libraries renting blurays free, and selling used discs $1-2, far far cheaper to fill my evenings with movie after movie than any streaming subscription.)

Besides, anything worth watching eventually gets shown on broadcast TV someday, so really no need to pay for streaming. Imo.
Broadcast TV means ads, and I don't put up with that cr@p anymore. I'd rather pay $15-20/month to avoid all of that, and the plus is I can share it with my other family members too.

Lol no. Try again. The "Bluray standard" dictates the resolution and even the encoding of the video so that ALL bluray players can play them.
Yeah, no way to save a .txt on to a recordable Bluray....it will never work. Wait, does that mean the file will be 4k?!?!?!

My African friend said it worked for him. He even saved some money and used a dvd disc to burn the tiny bluray image. He called it mini-bluray!

Believe I have this same model and it's wonderful to have on hand for use with MakeMKV and general use.

The Bluray standard for the physical format merely specifies how the disc is physicaliy made, read, and written to.

Basically laser etched dots and dashes on the media.

...

At a higher level, how are "files", the data you want on the disc whether it is text files, videos files or anything else, are written to the disc are also specified.

UDF is the common Bluray file system format used.

...

The Bluray video disc format simply specifies a standard way to encode videos (eg mpeg-2/4), in a speciifc directory layout (eg videos go into the STREAM folder), how menus are programmed (Java), etc.

If you take 1 video file and convert it to record to a bluray disc to make a bluray video disc, it'll get encoded, named, and placed in the correct files amd directories.

In addition, there is nothing stopping you from putting any other file (word, text, jpg, mp3, etc) in the same disc outside the Bluray video directories.

Store all the data you wish on Bluray recordable discs. This inclides putting an original copy of the video file on the disc as a data file, and the encoded bluray video version in the bluray video folders.

I'm surprised at how expensive Blu-ray drives are, but I guess I shouldn't be. Optical disc technology for consumers is probably near death unless it gets a last gasp from something like a 300 GB 8K UHD Blu-ray [flatpanelshd.com].
I paid $50 to rip my entire Blu ray collection a few years ago. Worth every penny.
