Re: Default selection rules issue

Instead of reporting it as a bug, ask for a new feature. Because according to the documents it is not a bug.

Re: Default selection rules issue

I've been using MakeMKV for years and can't remember when -sel:all unselected titles. The documentation clearly states it's for tracks, not titles. So maybe it was a bug that you were taking advantage of that was fixed. Personally I don't see it as a big deal as a simple right click and unselect all...

Re: Default selection rules issue

Maybe I'm mis-understanding the documents, but -sel:all says that it unselects all tracks. And it does just that.

It does not say that it unselects all titles

Re: Default selection rules issue

Why do you keep bumping this. -sel:all works on linux. It's probably something in your selection rules causing your problem. Did you try the rules I posted two years ago?

Re: Linux mint 21.3 need help adding MakeMKV to system

The official instructions work just fine for Mint. Just follow those instructions (not random YouTube videos or other advice, use the official instructions on this site)

Re: PPA Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Support

I personally do not understand why people want a deb so bad. It's not that difficult or time consuming to just built MakeMKV yourself. And it's something you only do every few months.

Re: Help MakeMKV with docker container

You probably should be asking in a forum that specializes in Docker as this looks more like a Docker problem.

Re: Why do TV series DVD/BD add both 1080 and 480 and joined versions?

Even worse, they would concatenate all the episodes into another one LONG video using a ton of DVD/BD space and obviously making MKV conversions longer ... why? That uses no extra space on the BD disc at all to have the Whovie format vs episode. It just changes how the player plays the content. Eve...

Re: Recording from streaming sources

spam In what way is my post spam? My mentioning some products that I used? It's no more spammy than posts recommending specific models of optical drives for ripping your discs with. And it's not like what I said is unalloyed praise of these products either. Because your post has nothing at all to d...

So the problem not existing on Windows is a limitation of Windows? That makes sense.
Calling it a limitation probably isn't the best choice of words. It's a difference in how linux and Windows handles filenames. It is not what I would class as a bug as it's working on both OSes as designed.

Re: Bug? Not showing all files (ISO vs iso extension case-sensitive)

Not so much a bug, as a limitation of Linux. You are completely correct in your observation except one thing: It is not a limitation of linux. It is working by design. If anything, it is a limitation of FAT/NTFS that they are case insensitive. Remember: Unix came long before DOS/Windows. And Unix h...

Re: Errors

Read the text closely, those are not errors, they are warnings.

If MakeMKV is working then you have nothing to worry about.

Re: Error Message

It could be the the DVD laser has died so only BD and UHD disks will work with that drive. Or, is the drive in an external enclosure? I have a drive that when used internally works fine for DVD/BD/UHD but when in an external enclosure DVD will not work.

Re: Make MKV from already ripped DVD folder on drive?

Thanks. I had tried this but for some reason I got errors on the first couple that I tried. It's working now. Not sure what I did wrong before or if I had some weird DVD structures. Not all VIDEO_TS structures are created properly. In particular I get lots of 'MactheRipper' warnings on some DVD ima...
