Re: Rip as an m4v/mp4 file as well as mkv
Not to mention that it would slow the process of ripping disks a LOT. On the Mac, you can use Handbrake to go directly from a DVD to MP4 (Handbrake can handle encrypted DVDs on the mac). Friend of mine does it. Takes forever to process a single disk, where I can rip a whole TV season in the same tim...

Re: Star Wars Playback Issue
A lot depends upon what you're playing them on. I've seen this with playing either MKV or MP4 1080p video across the network using several players (Asus, Seagate, Uebo), and even from the local hard drive in VLC, if the system load gets too high (Handbrake doing encodes, for example).

Re: Multiple Audio Streams
Generally speaking, if a player will handle MKV, it will also read any of the audio tracks in it that it has a CODEC for. So it is faster to let MakeMKV select all the audio tracks and put them into the MKV, although you can toss out any foreign languages you're not interested in. When you're recodi...

VLC 2.0 has some interesting anomalies... Try using the Playback/Chapters menu a few times, and watch what happens with the menu itself.
I'm getting ready to go back to the 1.1.11 version, which was at least stable.

Re: Bluray ripping - dialog vs music loudness
Have you used the same play software to play the BD itself, or is it something that can't play BD disks directly? As mentioned in another topic, you will probably find that the characteristics of an MKV playing in, say, VLC, match exactly the characteristics of the original disk. That is, if the mus...

Re: 1.7.0 does not offer option to "backup" a DVD?
I have been using MakeMKV since v1.5.4, and there has not been a "backup DVD" option in any version I've used.

Re: Sentai Filmworks Discs No longer Opening
Would you happen to have the older Sentai BD title "Samurai Girls" from August 2011 to test? It works fine on MakeMKV 1.70 and later (just tested it on 1.72) for Windows. It would be interesting to see if this is a difference between Windows and Mac, or if it is something new Sentai is doi...

Re: Quality of MKV not the same as DVD (which shouldn't happ
How does the DVD look when you play it with VLC on the Mac? Are you playing it at "native resolution", or "full screen"? I've noticed different artifacts when playing both DVDs and MKVs at something other than the actual resolution (or integral multiple), but they're consistent -...

Re: slow makeMKV to Handbrake from Blu Ray
Are you running the release version of Handbrake (0.9.5) or one of the nightly builds? There are significant speed improvements in the nightlies! But compressing a BD at high definition does take a while, and a lot of memory. 8gb is about right for Star Trek at 1920x1080 resolution, compressed with ...

Re: Question concerning subtitles in English Language films
Before you look at how to set up MakeMKV, check your player, first - the software used by Uebo and Seagate (amongst others) defaults to ALWAYS showing you the first subtitle stream, and you have to turn it off for each file played. I haven't found an menu setting to change this behavior on either un...

Consider that Mike isn't on here every day. Bumping just means there are a lot of no-content messages between the useful information in a topic and the end of it, when he gets time to come in.

Re: Disney's Miracle on Blu-ray
What version of Handbrake are you using, the release version or one of the nightly builds?
The nightlies are MUCH better at handling BD data than the release version, although they still cannot handle things like BD subtitles.

Re: version 1.7.0 crashes upon ejecting a disc
"Crash" as in... you get an error message, or the GUI just stops responding? I've had problems with MakeMKV's GUI losing control over the CLI portion after a rip; the CLI simply continues to try to read the disk, even though it's completed its work, and the only way to get it back is to ha...

If you are only using one copy at a time, no need for a second key. Running it on both computers at the same time, well... then you need a second key.
