Once more, if you have two mkv files, two files are selected in MakeMKV. For he movie, you need only one. And check what is selected if you expand the titles.

When processing the latest DVD I observed that I got two mkv files, this is ok I believe. Why two mkv files? A movie is in one mkv file and not in two. The problem is that the second file has only one subtitle track, not showing any subs. Media info confirms it. I did download the toolkit to see if...

Audacity can correct this optionaly during stretching the DVD audio track to the length of the Blu-ray track. Test it out, maybe it sounds better. It depends how the DVD track has been created during shrinking.

I use Media Client Players from "Dune HD" and the software checks the "Forced" track Flag for the default language in the MKV header. An "Forced" track for any different language will be ignored. So setting the flags (Default and Forced) in the MKV header helps a lot. B...

I really like to have The Usual Suspects as HD rip. In my country it's only available as DVD. Now I like to buy the UK Blu-Ray and the local DVD, export the DVD audio track and import it through MKVToolNix into the Blu-Ray rip. Do you think this will cause any problems? Done for some discs which ar...

Any chance that my computer is blocking the de-encryption files for the disk that MakeMKV pulls before ripping a disk? No, if there a an decryption problem you see complete other errors. Your error says, that the stream file 02886.m2ts has a problem. Maybe the debug log (see my signature) gives mor...

I seem to only get the director's commentary or silence, no matter what audio box I check. An other problem can be, that your equipment cannot play the main track (DTS on Smart TV ??), because the format/codec is not supported. In this case, the track is ignored and the next track is used. Post a M...

I don't know if there is any "term" for this technic used on Blu-rays. Best is like "Seamless Segment Selection" :D Seamless branching was establised for the DVD VOB files, bcecause all data must be in the (up to 9) 1GB VOB files. So the segments are put all into the VOB files an...

Yes, but it's still much slower because it backups really everything. It depends :D And as told, the title selection solution works for some disc, so the full backup option is only needed as an worst case scenario. And not many Blu-rays uses Multiangle. With my new Libredrive enabled drives I can r...

Also a possibility is, that two tracks are selected and ripped, but the order is wrong or the default flag is set for the wrong track. This can be corrected with "MKVToolNIX GUI" with a.) the "Header Editor" to correct flag settings, or b.) with remuxxing by changing the sequence...

Yes, but this takes a way to long for such small clips. I will post it as a feature request.

Yes, but the backup on HDD can be used to create the mkv file by open the index.bdmv file. The fast track to create the wanted mkv file.

unless it has seamless branching

Seamless branching is only used on DVDs, the segments are inside the VOB files. But Blu-ray has the Playlist with the list of stream segments which are stored in the STREAM folder.

No idea how MakeMKV creates the title list. The above works for me on some Blu-rays.

Anway, the ultimate solution is to use the Backup function and view the elements in the STREAM folder. This works always.

Go to the titles without chapters (Titles with chapters are assembled from an MPLS Playlist). The titles without chapters are the m2ts segment files, normaly sorted ascending. Look at the "Soruce filename: xxxxx.m2ts" where xxxxx is the segment number. Don't forget to adjust the minimum ti...

That's normal, chemical processes destroys the disc over the years. From my experience, the lifetime is 10-15 years.

An original DVD / Blu-ray is pressed from an master and not written by laser in an disc writer, so it's totaly different.
