Warm Tips: never update your UHD drive to any new firmware that LG or Pioneer may release. Pioneer UHD drives released in early 2017 were not supported at the moment, but may be supportive in the future.

In the beginning all drives had this firmware installed when they were sold, nowadays most drives come with newer firmware in which the loophole is closed. Only a handful of Ultra HD Blu-ray drives are UHD friendly, and they are able to copy UHD movies because they can be flashed with a firmware that uses a loophole in the AACS 2.0 protection.

Users in the market for a new 4K / Ultra HD Blu-ray drive, who want to be able to make backups of their purchased movies, will need to do extensive research before buying a drive.
