Hi 1st!_Blood%
Members gaak, brendajc, and StephenAPSU are all using BDDVDRW CH20L drives.

Thank you CBR929.
But we can't find this driver in Web Shop, only can get HP BDDVDRW CT20L.
Anyway, I agree with signals, the key is firmware. DVDfab get hybrid disk info from it. We will try to fix this when we get this driver.

Same here with Fab 8.1.1.2 and another drive

I have the same issue here with a LG BH10LS30 drive, and running Fab 8.1.1.2
It used to work very well before the upgrade with this drive.
The same DVD in my external old Pioneer A105 copies like a charm.

Yep

Same issue with LG WH10LS30 and version 8.1.1.2.

I have the LG Electronics 10X Blu-ray SATA Writer Drive with Software WH10LS30K snd have the same problem with 8.1.1.2 also, went back to older version and works fine.

Same here - WH10LS30

LG - HT-DT-ST - BD-RE - WH10LS30

Only started with the 8/8/11 (8.1.1.2) release.

Where can I download the previous release until this issue is resolved for the current release?

Hi All:
Summary below devices not work well for reading hybrid disk:
-BDDVDRW CH20L
-BH10LS30
-WH10L30
-TSSTcorp SH-S202N SB02

In fact, this isn't a bug of Fab. And above devices got and sent the wrong info to Fab, and then Fab read as a hybrid disk. We can't resolve this problem now.
But we will provide a simple solution that adding a check box which can enable search Hybrid disc or not in next beta version.

Although I understand your statement, it used to work well with previous versions of DVDFab and the same optical drives. So, even though this is not a bug in DVDFab, something changed in it that leads to this situation, as I assume nobody changed their optical drive firmware (at least I didn't).
Nevertheless, I appreciate you're looking into this and will provide a fix in the future!!

BH10LS30 Firmware

I've managed to find a firmware update for the LG BH10LS30 that seems to solve the Hybrid disc problem.

It's not on the official LG site but .

I used the v1.01 firmware, ran the executable and then rebooted. Ran DVDFab v8.1.1.2 and all was good.

Cross-Flash?

I've managed to find a firmware update for the LG BH10LS30 that seems to solve the Hybrid disc problem.

My drive is a WH10LS30 - I understand it is the same as the BH10LS30 but the update in question does not recognize it, and of course there is no update for the exact match.

I know that some people have successfully cross-flashed a WH- with the BH- update.
Can anyone help?

Thanks Bowch, I have the same drive and updated the firmware from 1.0 to 1.01 using your link, and now a DVD which wouldn't read is recognized!
Thanks again!
