Re: Paint Your Wagon

Nothing was attached, but you DID submit the file to svq@makemkv.com, correct?

Re: New Titles

OK, that general error message says that MakeMKV hasn't got the database with the decryption key for those disks. Assuming you are getting updates (that would be listed in the log), you should submit the .TGZ files that were generated to svq@makemkv.com, so that they can be created/added to the data...

Re: New Titles

No logs seen.

What error messages are you receiving? "Won't open" is very ambiguous without the logs. You do not have to "attach" them, just post them in the message.

Re: The Abyss 4K

You're encountering errors in reading. Two possibilities - dirty disk, or drive trying to read faster than it has power to do.

Is this a USB-powered drive?

please share here how to fix this issue?
Return the defective drives for replacement. There really isn't any other "fix" for a defective drive.

Re: Bypass errors

"There are no scratches on the disk" means nothing - anything that interferes with reading the bits is a problem. Fingerprints, for example, or even minor smudges. That's why "clean the disk" is a standard response here. MakeMKV does not have a "bypass mode". It tries t...

Re: DVD Rip Speeds?

Updating the firmware will do nothing to speed up DVD reading. It uses a different laser than BD or UHD, so it doesn't affect it. I should qualify that - if you're seeing riplock with the original firmware (rare!), the new firmware could disable it. But riplock would lock your speed to 2x, not allow...

Re: Ripping 4K UHD with ASUS BW-16D1H-U Pro

What year? What does MakeMKV say about it, especially about its UHD capabilities?

The BW-16D1H-U has changed drives over the years. Early ones aren't UHD. Later ones need to have new firmware.

Re: MakeMKV Not Working

Are you trying to use the key that is "built in" to the file you downloaded, or the one posted in the forum each time it changes? It DOES change every 60 days, which is why it's posted.

Re: No Disc Backup for HD-DVDs?

Each 60 days, a new key is generated for non-registered users . It is NOT put in the existing download file; that is updated when the program is, not when the key is. Sometimes, the key is not generated exactly when the old one expires. That does happen. Those who rely on not registering have to scr...

Re: Stargate Atlantis Disc 1 Errors when opening and ripping

Clean the disks. They may look clean, but they need cleaned. Your drive is having trouble reading them.

Re: Do I need to change my firmware?

What it is reading isn't different, so firmware change doesn't help anything. What is possible is that the lens is getting dirty, or the mechanism is getting inaccurate, which firmware won't help. Cleaning the lens assembly is probably the biggest issue, but that's mostly when it stops reading ANY d...

Re: Do I need to change my firmware?

Question 1: Is it working?
Question 2: There really isn't a question 2.

If it is working, why update?

"Help" in what way? You're replying to a message about supplying a dump file for that title, not that he's ripped it.

Re: His Girl Friday .tgz

Did you submit a .tgz file, generated by MakeMKV, to svq@makemkv.com , so that a key can be created for it?

It is very difficult to tell from your post.
