Is there a newer version of MakeMKV than 1.17.75? Is there a new Beta key available in December 2023? Thanks.

Wow way to dig up literally the oldest post here.
There will likely be a new key soon.
You just have to wait if you don't buy it that's the downside of the free version this has been the norm for 10+ years

You're welcome! It didn't say closed and invited me to post any question about MakeMKV beta.

I did try very hard to find a working key. After all, it's December 5th. I wondered if perhaps the "beta" stage had ended. I also looked at the MakeMKV website and didn't see any way to even purchase a key. I'll try to be patient for a new beta key to appear.

FAQ about BETA and PERMANENT keys.

Thanks for the link about keys. I didn't find that when I did my own internet searches.

It's literally a pinned post. If you were looking at the first page, you would have found your answer without dredging up this post.

Excuse me eroc1990, but cut me some slack. Are you perfect? We don't all just browse the long list of forum posts when we have a question. I did an internet search, not at forum.makemkv.com. It took me directly to the page I posted on. The information on the page said this was the correct place. Perhaps I didn't notice the date of the post. Big deal.

Pinned posts are typically at the top of any topic-specific sub-forum, but people rarely notice. Posts are dated, but people rarely notice. I tend to respond w/ appropriate links, but people often take that as condescension... thank you for accepting it in the spirit it was intended.

This topic comes up every 2 months when the beta key expires & as the history is expunged (deservedly so... it's been ugly, at times, over 10+ years), newcomers continue to ask the obvious questions. See the cycle repeat enough times & folks get cranky.

I completely appreciated your response with a helpful link. I immediately followed the link and read the FAQ about beta and permanent keys. I understand the system much better now. eroc1990's post however was just meant to shame or scold me for such a horrible oversight? I guess I apologize.

Hey there!
Long time beta user here. Today I made the switch and purchased a license. Just wanted to jump in here to say thank you for such a useful tool that enables me to convert my collection into digital format in order to put all my media on a central home media server for ease of viewing.
Appreciate all your work and dedication over the years.

The newest beta code will expire on New Year's, damn...

You sure have a strange calendar if the New Year starts at the end of January...

might be my computer issue, being a crackhead as usual...

and nope...it's not a crackhead this time
