Re: Issue with two drives

I have 2 identical drives (including same firmware) (ASUS, not Pioneer). One of them is mounted in my desktop, connected with a SATA cable to the motherboard. The other is in an external case and connected to the desktop with a USB cable. I have no problems running makemkv simultaneously on both dr...

Re: Issue with two drives

Threre is an issue if you are using Windows Defender blocking optical devices. Please check http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic ... der#p62912 Many thanks for this - good spot. Unfortunately this did nothing in my case as the folder protection was off. I even tried switching it on and explicitl...

Re: Issue with two drives

What version of MakeMKV are you using? If you are using V1.12.3, you might try removing it and installing v1.12.2. I doubt that this is the problem, but some people have reported a few issues with the new version. Might be worth a shot. I was using 1.12.3 but just uninstalled and tried 1.12.2 as su...

Re: Issue with two drives

If you have two disks in the drives, THEN start MakeMKV, does it ask to use single-drive mode? Given that the drives are identical, Windows MAY be treating them as the same drive, until you put a disk in to differentiate them. This is NOT supposed to happen, but Windows can give some very weird beh...

Re: Issue with two drives

What happens if you uncheck the single drive option? Do you then see both drives or still just one. By the way, when you uncheck that box, you will need to close the program and restart. I just tried checking the single drive box on my system and then it does ask which drive I want. When it is unch...

Re: Issue with two drives

If this helps to rule a few things out I can confirm that both drives are detected properly as optical drives by the OS: C:\Users\username>wmic cdrom where mediatype!='unknown' get /format:list Availability=3 Capabilities={3,4,7} CapabilityDescriptions={"Random Access"," Supports writ...

Re: Issue with two drives

What did you see if you navigate to "File->Open disc". Are both drives in the list or only one of them? The single drive mode works only if two or more drives are detected. Only one drive seems to be listed. I have just reinstalled the software but made no difference. I have reset (powere...

Issue with two drives

Hello everyone, First of all I just wanted to say thanks to Mike for his work on makeMKV. It is a great product and I purchased a license to support him and the community around makeMKV. With that said I recently encountered an issue when I added a second drive on my machine. Both drives are identic...
