Re: DVD conversion successful. What to do next?
When you rip with MakeMKV, the result is one or more MKV files, corresponding to the tracks you ripped. You will probably want to name them appropriately, depending upon your settings during the rip. Putting them on a media server is generally just copying them to it. If your player isn't compatible...

What do you mean by "whole queue"? Stop a rip that is in process?

When I search for "playing MKV on PS3", I get a LOT of information on how to CONVERT MKV files to something the PS3 will recognize and play.

Re: default Settings for DVD
I'm also wondering why so many people keep using Handbrake with issues like this. I just tried MKVtoMP4 and it does not use a subtitle stream for chapters. From the man page for MKVtoMP4: mkvtomp4: Uses mpeg4ip or GPAC's MP4Box, mkvtoolnix and ffmpeg to convert troublesome mkv files to mp4. The con...

Re: default Settings for DVD
Which usually can be changed by turning off subtitles in the player's setup. I have yet to see one not providing this option. Then take a look at the Uebo M400 and the old Seagate FreeAgent Theater. I've checked every menu option on both, and neither will default to subtitles OFF. And the way Handb...

Re: Hardcoded subs missing
The default is to rip the file with ALL audio and subtitle languages into the MKV file. When I rip some disks, I have to manually disable as many as 6 languages I'm not interested in.

Re: default Settings for DVD
A lot depends upon your player. I have two players that, no matter what the settings are in the FILE for subtitles, they always display the first subtitle track, and play the first audio track. If the audio happens to be English and the first subtitle track the "forced" subtitles, life is ...

Re: Newbie, question about first BR rip
Well, a lot depends upon what you ASKED it to do....
When the BD is inserted, did you select "backup disk", or "open disk"?
To create the MKV files, you first Open the disk, which will give you the the list of tracks on the disk to chose from. Backup doesn't do that.

Re: 1.7.3, Application failed to initialize
This error has popped up in the past... because, SOMETIMES , MakeMKV won't properly exit. The command line portion will continue to "run" after the GUI is closed. If it is still loaded in memory, the install of the new version will be unable to copy the newer version to disk, and you have ...

Re: Rip as an m4v/mp4 file as well as mkv
Not to mention that it would slow the process of ripping disks a LOT. On the Mac, you can use Handbrake to go directly from a DVD to MP4 (Handbrake can handle encrypted DVDs on the mac). Friend of mine does it. Takes forever to process a single disk, where I can rip a whole TV season in the same tim...

Re: Star Wars Playback Issue
A lot depends upon what you're playing them on. I've seen this with playing either MKV or MP4 1080p video across the network using several players (Asus, Seagate, Uebo), and even from the local hard drive in VLC, if the system load gets too high (Handbrake doing encodes, for example).

Re: Multiple Audio Streams
Generally speaking, if a player will handle MKV, it will also read any of the audio tracks in it that it has a CODEC for. So it is faster to let MakeMKV select all the audio tracks and put them into the MKV, although you can toss out any foreign languages you're not interested in. When you're recodi...

VLC 2.0 has some interesting anomalies... Try using the Playback/Chapters menu a few times, and watch what happens with the menu itself.
I'm getting ready to go back to the 1.1.11 version, which was at least stable.

Re: Bluray ripping - dialog vs music loudness
Have you used the same play software to play the BD itself, or is it something that can't play BD disks directly? As mentioned in another topic, you will probably find that the characteristics of an MKV playing in, say, VLC, match exactly the characteristics of the original disk. That is, if the mus...

Re: 1.7.0 does not offer option to "backup" a DVD?
I have been using MakeMKV since v1.5.4, and there has not been a "backup DVD" option in any version I've used.
