Hi, same behavior, discovered as 06 drive but disc can't be inserted (looks like is a known limitation of the drive that requires a driver to admit). in macOS it works

apple_mfi_fastcharge activate SuperDrive are in module usb-storage of Linux. Maybe in drivers/usb/storage/initializers.c Apple ODD (Optical Disk Drive)

Can you do a screenshot?

Can you do a screenshot?

If drive have a DVD inside I can "eject", although it's not readed. If I try to push in a CD it doesn't catch
I read that its a characteristic of this drive that need a drive to be detected as unit

Don't know if it is the same AnnoyingTechnology/dbaae864822cf08372f0aafe64a63477

This is the unlock cmd, is a raw scsi cmd so easy to port. I will make a test version with unlock and let you know

Thank you

Since i suspect that this command must be called before any other i have to parse apple and superdrive from vendorid and apply it at start

 

[alfonsovin]

Hello, is there any advance?

 

[proconsule54]

Yes i will update all my homebrew this month, also this.

Thank you!.. Can't wait to play my DVD Games (like this) on a Switch: https://www.mobygames.com/platform/dvd-player/

Made render changes (similar to what i have done on NXMP) and is working better then ever, also with high bitrate stuff.
waiting for libusbdvd testing on Apple SuperDrive (i haven't so i have to wait for test). This will be updated as well all other homebrew.

Working HARD on libaacs (with mbedtls instead of gnucrypt) , fixed many many stuff (mem leak, curve init and so on) this fixed bluyray playback, i tested long playback on all bluray i have at home and now seem "100% perfetct" just like DVD. next version of nx-laserplayer will be a LOT better on bluray playback

Side notes on my testing, many bluray are shipped with truehd7.1 as main default audio track, this stall the cpu and causes frame drop(huge frame drop) switching to ac3 track (always present) makes fluid playback. Tried lemas 66 bluray hd, 2 hours and more and only 15 frame dropped on entire playback

I know this is useless nowdays, maybe is only a tech achivement, but hope this can be useful for someone. I put a lot of effort on libusbdvd and nx-laserplayer, thousand of hours (mainly on libusbdvd and libaacs)
