Re: LOADS of A/V sync issues

I rarely get those sync warnings, and I think they are generally benign as you have found. It's hard to say whether in the cases where the resulting mkv had a legitimate sync issue whether that was the mkv file being authored incorrectly or if the media player was not properly obeying timestamps and...

Re: DVD errors on two discs. Second layer of a dual-layer disc inaccessible?

Yeah I'd say give 1.16.7 a go, failing that try DVD Decrypter in IFO mode to attempt individually extracting the specific title(s) giving trouble, failing that try other DVD drives cause some of your comments sound like the disc(s) may be on their way out unless they just needs a clean (not that it'...

Re: I found a “work-around” solution to “DVDs” that fail when you try to rip…

Should have called it YAFG - Yet Another FFMpeg GUI :lol: Another one is XMedia Recode, but I have lots of issues with it randomly crashing. If you can work around the crashes it's okay. But I'm getting better at ffmpeg command line so I just use that instead. Actually it's very easy using LLM to te...

Your post count being 1 and the fact you're doing this whole anticipation/buildup thing to finally steer the reader into the reveal of "this one app that works" leads me to believe I may be reading the result of a LLM prompt :x

Re: [Attention devs] Disc compatibility regression?

According to the changelog, introduced in MakeMKV v1.17.0 (27.6.2022) - A new, rewritten DVD engine - much better handling for discs with structure protection Announced here: DVD opening modes - CellWalk, CellTrim, CellFull To the best of my knowledge, this feature remains WIP. IIRC, people have ha...

Re: [Attention devs] Disc compatibility regression?

Well the OP in the second report has just now advised that it was a false alarm. The first report is kind of ambiguous as the disc itself appears dodgy, so I wouldn't get too worried about it. The third report is definitely legit though because I can reproduce it. So something was changed between 1....

Re: Twilight Zone Complete Series DVD rips

Exact same issue here with the Region 1 of The Twilight Zone, Season 1 Disc 2, and rolling back to 1.16.7 solves it. But I don't think it's purely MakeMKV's fault as there is definitely something wrong with Season 1 Disc 2 as my best Asus drive will not recognise this particular disc at all, whereas...

[Attention devs] Disc compatibility regression?

It appears something was changed in one of the releases which may be hurting disc compatibility, here are 3 reports from this month where rolling back to a previous version restored compatibility https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=33777 https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic....

Re: Unable to rip DVDs from a specific distributor

I am able to rip the disc in MakeMKV using older version 1.16.7 (hosted at videohelp.com).
As there are other reports of this happening with other discs I'll make a new thread for that topic.

Re: Beginning of Avatar Way of Water chopped off

Thank you for the suggestion, however, that did not work. The first six cells were still removed from the start. What happens if you go into manual mode and paste this string in: t:@1-@6 which supposedly means to only extract cells 1-6 from title t (replace t with the actual title number of the mai...

What happens if you set preferences to "CellFull" and minimum title length to 0 seconds?

Re: Unable to rip DVDs from a specific distributor

I was able to get the subtitles into the file by using VSRip to extract 2 subtitle files (.sub and .idx) from the .vob, then remux them into a mkv using mkvtoolnix (couldn't get it working with ffmpeg) So the whole process is: 1. Open the DVD in a media player like MPC-HC to find out the Title to ex...
