https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jho_lc7OS9Y This video shows how to flash the firmware and which bluray drives to pick up. I fortunately already had the ASUS one, as it was on a list of drives that could read PS3 game disks, which gives you a double reason if you have PS3 games you'd like to use on emulators!
After flashing this, there was some back and forth on trying to get VLC on Windows to support the menus with java, but it just worked out of the box on Debian. The biggest pain on Windows was of course that you'd be on the Java download site that said you were downloading the 64bit version, but it was the 32bit version...
Anyhow, all I needed to do was get makemkv (I've had a registered license for it for ages, it won't work with the sandboxed flatpak version, so download and compile / install it), then install the openjdk-8-jre package (debian based) and VLC. After that, you should be able to play 4k movies with menus in Linux.
Never cared much for menus on DVD on Blu-Ray but it is good to know that it finally works. I might give it a go just for shit and giggles!

Funny thing with that drive though is that Micro Center gave me that more expensive one a couple years ago with my in-store pick-up order. I actually ordered the cheaper LG non-4K one. But the stock must've been wrong on the website, and the worker there probably didn't give a shit and just grabbed that one. I knew right away what I got, and didn't say a word and left. It was awesome. lol

On the flipside of that; ordered a dock last night for my FoundryVTT table and it never showed up, but was marked as delivered... not even a car drove down my street all morning, so it couldn't have been just dropped off at a neighbors... Of course Amazon said I can't really whine that it hasn't shown up yet until Monday...
