Re: Marvel Studios Wandavision 4K UHD Best Buy Steelbook

Dang, mine just shipped today from Amazon. How'd you get it that early? Best Buy shipping glitch?

To think that in a few months, that won't be a thing anymore... 🤷‍♂️

Re: The Others submitted

I backed up my copy yesterday after I received it. Make sure that your ISP isn't blocking MakeMKV's outgoing connections for hashed key updates, perhaps?

Re: "Videodrome" UHD

As I said in my edit, the issue was IPv6 connectivity (for some reason my ISP's IPv6 connectivity stopped working), after I disabled that it downloaded the HK update successfully and backed up the disc.

Re: "Videodrome" UHD

New HK update dropped, but MakeMKV seems to be having some kind of mental breakdown trying to download it and fails with "Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed." after multiple minutes of attempting. I've never seen this happen before. Edit: Nevermind, it was an IPv6 networking pr...

Re: "makemkvcon mkv" - how to select what audio/subtitle tracks get transferred?

I haven't, no. I've been busy with work and other stuff of late, and trying to shift from depending on a Wine wrapper for "eac3to" to using "makemkvcon" for getting title information from Blu-ray Discs. I have put the code up on github, actually, though it's still very much WIP: ...

Re: "Videodrome" UHD

The dump file for mine was "MKB20_v77_VIDEODROME_52E0.tgz". And no, I still can't back mine up; I haven't seen any HK updates recently.

"Videodrome" UHD

Another 4K disc, another "Volume key is unknown". Dump sent, in hopes that I can back it up soon.

Re: ILLEGAL REQUEST:ILLEGAL MODE FOR THIS TRACK - Audio Discs

I... I guess I'm confused. It says "Current profile: CD-ROM" and "Data capacity: 0.65 Gb". Are you putting an audio CD into the drive? Because AFAIK MakeMKV has no support for ripping audio CDs. It supports DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, and UltraHD Blu-ray Discs (with appropriate drives),...

"makemkvcon mkv" - how to select what audio/subtitle tracks get transferred?

I'm working on a (fairly complex) bash script to automate TV series backup and repacking, and have successfully integrated it with TheTVDB for getting series info and matching episodes. Right now, I'm at the point that I'm trying to take a bunch of disc dumps (made with dvdbackup for DVDs and makemk...

Re: Asking for some help: New to Dolby Vision rips

Sounds like it only likes certain versions of the Dolby Vision metadata format. I think you'd need to use dovi_tool to convert it, but I'm not sure of the specifics. Apparently it only like the 05.09 version?

Re: How to support x265

Almost nobody producing commercial discs is using x265. I can count the number of discs I've dumped on my two hands (and I've dumped nearly 1000 Blu-ray and 4K Blu-ray discs) that has metadata showing it was authored with x265.

Re: How to support x265

"x264" and "x265" are not codecs, but open-source implementations of encoders for H.264 (aka MPEG-4 part 10, aka MPEG-4 AVC) and H.265 (aka MPEG-H part 2, aka MPEG-H HEVC), respectively. Also, there are lots of extant BD releases with MPEG2 and Microsoft/SMPTE VC-1 video. Not to ...

Re: ot showing up in console - Soltuion?

By the commands, I assume you're running MakeMKV on Linux. Does the user you're running MakeMKV as have access to the /dev/sg* device nodes? What does

Code: Select all

ls -l /dev/sg*
say?
