Re: Latest version of MakeMKV does not work for me

It worked right away with a slightly older version!

Re: Latest version of MakeMKV does not work for me

Thanks! I will try an older version and then the other things if it does not work.

Latest version of MakeMKV does not work for me

I updated MakeMKV to the latest version and it simply does not open a DVD any more. It does nothing. Could I download the previous version?

Re: Where did my backup file go?

Thanks, Woodstock. It turns out that I forgot that backing up a DVD is a two-step process in MakeMKV. The first part of the process does not make a backup of anything. It is the second part that actually makes a backup and stores it in Movies.

Re: Where did my backup file go?

Thanks dcoke22 and Woodstock for your replies. This is the entirety of my log: MakeMKV v1.16.5 darwin(x64-release) started Optical drive "BD-RE PIONEER BD-RW BDR-XD05 3.01 QFDL059885UCd" opened in OS access mode. Using direct disc access mode Title #1 has length of 6 seconds which is less ...

Re: Where did my backup file go?

Thanks for your patience. I took a screenshot of the logs, so I can't copy and paste. But there is no mention anywhere of titles saved. I wonder if the disappearance of the backup file is due to some of the many updates to the Mac OS that have been pushed on Mac users lately. Each one has some unint...

Re: Where did my backup file go?

Thanks for the reply. I am indeed using a Mac. I ran MakeMKV for the third time and the log, as before, reads Output folder: /Users/mac/Movies/Sheena (mac is my default user name and Sheena the movie in question). The end of the running log says Operation successfully completed. But the Movies folde...

Where did my backup file go?

I haven't used this great software in a while, and maybe I am a bit rusty. Anyway, I completed a backup on a DVD, and I was told by the program it would appear in mac>users>movies. But there is nothing there; just some old files. Where could it be?

Re: MakeMKV now fails to complete BluRay backup every time

It is a stand-alone unit with just one USB 3 port and no others.

Washed the Disk--It Made No Difference

Thanks for all the links and suggestions. I washed the poor disk with mild soap and put it through its paces again in my new BluRay reader. This time I made note of the read speeds. Through the first 25% of the disk, read speeds were at 8.5 M/s. Then for the next 25%, they zigzagged wildly, ending u...

Re: MakeMKV now fails to complete BluRay backup every time

Thanks for the suggestions. I will endeavor to record the error messages next time :( . The discs I am having trouble backing up are new and squeaky clean, with no visible scratches. I made many successful backups, including discs that had some micro-scratches. Then, as I mentioned, I could not fini...

MakeMKV now fails to complete BluRay backup every time

I have successfully used the successive versions of MakeMKV for Mac OS X and OS until recently. Now the backup will invariably proceed to about the middle of the disk and then fail. I procured a new BluRay player and the problem persists. What could be wrong?
