Important Note: RedFox shut down AnyDVD HD and its official website in June 2024. If you already own a valid license and have AnyDVD HD installed, it should continue to function on your system.

Users have reported that some newer Blu-ray discs may not work with older versions of AnyDVD HD.
To use LibreDrive mode with AnyDVD HD, MakeMKV must be installed. For the best performance, ensure you have the latest version of MakeMKV. |

Important
📀 Important Usage Recommendation: To preserve the lifespan of your Blu-ray drive, we do not recommend using it for direct playback of movie discs. Continuous playback can lead to premature laser wear. Our drives are ripping-optimised, not for use as regular movie players.
✅ Instead, use trusted third-party software like MakeMKV to convert your 4K discs into a digital file or ISO container, which is a more reliable and drive-friendly solution for playback on your device.
UHD Friendly Drives Team
💎 Global 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee!
🔧 Testing and Secure Packaging for Unmatched Performance: Every drive we offer is brand new and undergoes meticulous testing for 4K compatibility, ensuring a seamless experience. Each drive is connected to our computer systems. Testing uses a sample set of movie discs, including BD100, BD66, BD50, and a DVD Disc. After testing, the drive is securely and expertly packaged, guaranteeing it will reach you in pristine condition. Our commitment to secure packaging reflects our dedication to the integrity of your purchase. All products are meticulously packed to withstand the journey and ensure safe arrival at your doorstep so you receive your purchase in optimal condition.
🖥️💿 Brand-New Condition: Beyond the testing process, rest assured that aside from the testing procedure, the drive remains brand new, free from wear or tear.
🎥 4K Playback Considerations: While we cannot guarantee direct "plug-and-play" functionality for 4K discs on your computer, our drive is designed to read them flawlessly. Additional software (not included in this sale) offers versatile options, including backing up, burning, and copying your movie collection.
🔍 Tested Unofficial Playback with VLC: We have successfully tested playback on some of our operating systems using VLC. However, for optimal results, we strongly recommend using third-party software, such as MakeMKV, to process the 4K disc and create a file or ISO container better suited for playback on your device.
📼 Software Compatibility: Compatible with industry-leading software solutions, including MakeMKV, AnyDVDHD, and Leawo Prof. Media 13 All-in-one Pack, for seamless multimedia integration.
📧 Exceptional Customer Support – We've Got You Covered: At UHD Friendly Drives, your satisfaction is our top priority. We proudly stand behind the quality of every product we sell. In the rare event that your optical drive arrives damaged or defective, rest assured we'll make it right with fast, hassle-free support.
🛠️ Full Support for 12 Months: Enjoy peace of mind with one full year of customer support. Whether you have a question, concern, or issue, our team is here to help—before, during, and after your purchase.
🔄 Returns & Refunds – What You Need to Know
We accept returns within 30 days of delivery, provided the following conditions are met:
- 📦 The item must be returned in its complete original packaging, in undamaged condition.
- 📉 A 20% deduction will apply if any part of the packaging is missing or damaged.
- 🔁 All returns are subject to a mandatory 10% restocking and retesting fee.
🔍 Why a Retesting Fee?
Every returned drive is carefully retested, even if it is unopened. This is because Blu-ray drives contain fragile components, especially the laser reader, which can be affected by transit shock. The retesting fee helps cover this thorough quality assurance process, ensuring that every resold unit is fully functional and ready for its next owner.
Thank you for choosing UHD Friendly Drives. We're always here to support you!
For firmware version 1-04: Please note that this drive should not be flashed with any other firmware, as it may not read UHD discs and could void your warranty.
