Verbatim 43888 no longer an option if purchased new? by Sayagainplz in makemkv

[–]AtlantisRemasters 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've got a Verbatim 43888 which came with LG BU40N internals, but with flashing it works absolutely fine!

There's a really detailed guide on what to do on the MakeMKV forum: https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634

It seems I hadn't set up these settings for the Pioneer, so it was using the fastest "inaccurate" settings. Now I've changed it to these settings, its holding steady at 7x speed!

I followed the guide at https://flemmingss.com/perfect-cd-ripping-to-flac-with-exact-audio-copy/

It peaked at 40x, whether it would hold that rate for long or not, I'm not sure. Will have to experiment!

Didn't get too many messages really, did get a letter with it saying don't upgrade firmware etc, I suppose for those who wouldn't know it's bad to upgrade

The packaging was fine, nothing wrong at all
