Re: Change default output folder

As I mentioned, I have one drive (Z:) on my Windows system where new rips go. That's all that is in my customized line, with "SemiAuto" checked. If a disk has a title, the path becomes "Z:/Title of Disk/", example "Z:/Danmachi S4 Part1 BD-1". This could work for many pe...

Re: MakeMKV fails without additional info in log

But, just out of curiosity, why 6 versions of MakeMKV? Two reasons: Defensiveness, and laziness. Can't say which is the main reason, though. When a new version is posted, I'll install it, but not as my primary immediately. There have been versions that were screwed up in some way, so that's a defen...

Re: MakeMKV fails without additional info in log

Just a note to say I have (currently) 6 versions of MakeMKV installed on this machine, and 8 on another, from version 1.14.1 through 1.17.5 (haven't installed .6 yet). You do NOT have to install a new/different version in the same directory as the original install.

Just saying.

Re: Initial Start-up

Not sure what you mean - MakeMKV has something "moving" when it's busy, and it's static when it is waiting. Start the program, and it has bars that move while it's checking the system, then a static screen when it's waiting. Open the drive bay, and the window changes to show the drive is m...

Re: Van Helsing

Those indicate read errors, one of which (625668096) was eventually read past, which could be because of the disk being scratched or dirty. Have you tried cleaning the disk? Even "clean, new, never been used" disks can have read issues... trust me, I've encountered them. It's especially an...

Re: Van Helsing

The logs are available from your home directory (depends on your operating system), and show the progress through the rip. We would need to see what is happening to tell you what the fix is. You can post the logs in your message, unless they exceed about 60K in size. But at least a portion of them w...

And you seem to be unwilling to let anyone know what those issues are. Were you expecting people to guess?

Re: Autoripping

From the description on the page you linked to, the type of disk wouldn't matter. Although, 4K disks are more likely to have issues with keys when new, so automatic ripping may be a problem with fresh disks. Whether you trust it after that warning is up to you; No one here has any control over that ...

Re: New Titles

"Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed." usually means something is blocking you from getting the update file. This is more and more common as anti-piracy people start blocking hosts.

Have you read hkdata.crabdance.com or hkdata.fairuse.org not found yet?

Re: New Titles

You should submit the two files mentioned to be processed. MKB20_v77_Witchfinder_General_UHD_49E8.tgz MKB20_v77_Blood_on_Satans_Claw_UHD_D604.tgz The email address is the fastest. Then, assuming nothing is blocking access to the key server (nothing was mentioned in your logs), you should be able to ...

Re: New Titles

You haven't posted a log yet, but I'm guessing it says something like:
Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed.
somewhere along the log. That says it cannot download keys, which will prevent you from accessing anything your system doesn't have they key for yet.

Are you seeing that message?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2023

The question is really, why would you need to flash it?

UHD didn't start shipping until almost two years after this drive was built, so it doesn't add anything to your capabilities.

Re: New Titles

Are you still seeing the error message about not being able to download the key file? It is possible that they key has been generated, but your system is "protecting" you from it.

Re: Advice on 4K UHD

Do not post your .TGZ files here; they get emailed to svq@makemkv.com for processing. Posting them here does nothing but tell others you received them. The boss needs to get them before they can be processed. Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed. This is saying that your system is unable t...

Re: True Lies 4K

Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed.
You need to find out why the download is failing. Most likely, your system is blocking resolution of the path to the server, for "security". It's a common thing nowadays.
