I'm getting an error saying I have an out of date version, despite having 1.14.2, same as is currently available.

I'm trying to open a DVD, not a Blu-ray, and from the way I understand the bullet points on the front page this should still work?

When did consensus on VLC become unfavourable? It was the go-to media player not all that long ago.

It's screwy in VLC on my PC as well though.

Maybe VidCoder has a setting for reading them and retaining them, then. I've never used it. I do know chapter markers generally have to sit on an I-frame so it has to be handled at the encoder level.

I'm aware of that, but that doesn't explain what M and N are.

As far as re-encoding, that means a) quality loss and b) chapter-point loss.

I tried putting it on a USB and plugging it straight into the TV. Same problem, so it's definitely not emby that's causing it. I've attached a photo of what it looks like on the TV, this is after a minute and a half of continuous playback. It's looked like this the whole time (albeit with the blocks...

@d00zah: I'm in Australia, 99% of my DVDs are PAL. Everything else works fine.

@Woodstock: All my other DVD rips can be skipped around just fine. They also play back perfectly through emby. I'm guessing there's a connection between those two things. @d00zah: I'm starting from the beginning and playing the entire first minute or so, I'm not skipping around. All my other DVD rip...

These all successfully created MKV files, but when I skip around it gets really blocky and horrible for a second or two, as shown in the attached screenshot. It's irritating but workable on my PC. On the other hand, when I play them on my TV through emby, they're like that for the entire duration of...

When I look at the available titles on the disc, excluding special features, I see four listings that each have 28 chapters and a runtime of 1:45:24. Two are 26.0 GB Mpeg4, two are 37.1 GB Mpeg4 with an additional Mpeg4-MVC-3D listing. When I rip these, I get four video files that are all 2D. The tw...
