Re: Using Java Runtime Environment to get around obfuscation

Mike said it doesn't work on everything, but... he also asked that if you found something that it guessed wrong at, you should follow the steps in the first message of this topic: http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=14330 If Java is working and MakeMKV doesn't even offer a "fe...

Re: volume key is unknown - makemkv cannot find discattd.dat

If you're ripping directly from the disk and MakeMKV cannot generate the proper key, please follow the steps in the FAQ link in my signature so that Mike can look at it.

It is rare that MakeMKV needs to look up a volume key, EXCEPT when dealing with an ISO instead of the actual disk.

Re: If you're experiencing rip errors, please read here firs

If you see "device not ready" errors after a read or seek error, it can be because the drive cannot operate reliably at the speeds MakeMKV is capable of ripping. This is often the case with USB-powered drives... once the speed gets above 5 to 6x, the power becomes inadequate. Some other pr...

Re: New and completely lost!

Then you do need something that creates an unencrypted ISO file for burning. Searching for "dvd to iso" will give you a number of leads. I can't recommend any current packages; I gave up on the idea of using optical media as "backup" for ANYTHING a long time ago! Consumer writabl...

Re: New and completely lost!

There are few COMMERCIAL programs that will copy protected disks. And it is getting harder to find programs that will remove the copy protection and leave you with what can be burned onto another disk. I had found one a few years ago, but the author stopped supporting it, and even the site it was ho...

Re: How to select ONLY MVC video?

But it IS a separate track - it is not needed if you are viewing the movie as 2D. It's just as "connected" as the audio, subtitle, and chapter tracks, in that they work together, but do different things.

How else would you suggest representing it?

Re: Ben Hur older version not reading

That really doesn't narrow it down a lot - I've seen the Heston 'Hur' disk in a couple of different collections.

Disk 2 ripped without error for me back in September without error. It was from a $5 set at Walmart that also had The Ten Commandments (also 2 disks).

Re: Best way to move MakeMKV to another drive?

I don't think MakeMKV bothers with a temporary file, though.

Re: Subtitle question...Assassin Creed and Lion

How many subtitle tracks did you find? The "forced only" track you see below a particular subtitle track is one MakeMKV will create, by looking at the "main" track, and seeing if any are marked as "forced". It is almost always removed because it is empty... Few disk aut...

Re: How to select ONLY MVC video?

As I understand it, the MVC track is the DIFFERENCE between the left/right eyes, and is useless without the "base".

Re: No longer have permission to access MakeMKV

You should always set your MakeMKV data directory (Preferences->General) to something OTHER THAN the program directory. This allows you full access to profiles and other things you want to save between versions. I would recommend logging in as administrator, and remove the whole makemkv directory fr...

Re: Ray Donovan Season Three - AACS host certificate is revo

Actually, it says AACS v62, and it saved a copy of the AACS information in the file /Users/MrRobPlus/Library/MakeMKV/MKB_v62_GAMEOFTHRONES_S6_DISC1.tgz . And v62 has been supported since 1.10.2, so it should not be an issue. It may be an issue with permission to talk to the drive directly, but these...

Re: Fargo Season 1

It would be helpful to know what errors you're receiving. And if they always occur at the same place, or if they move around.

Yes, it probably would be a LOT better.

Re: Failed to open disk

How long is the movie? You've told MakeMKV to not look at any title shorter than 92:45 seconds. If no title is at least that long, you'll get the "failed to open disk".
