Re: Heads up - Support for LG UHD drives

Thank you for your contentious support. I'm not sure if the use of the word 'contentious' there was intentional or auto-correct mayhem, but either way that was hilarious. On the few occasions in my life where people have been eagerly awaiting some work of mine to be done, I told them that I subscri...

Re: Forced Subtitles from Captain America 2 & 3 - Won't Work Properly

Just to add more kindling to the fire, you could also try MKVTools to extract specific tracks from an MKV (http://www.emmgunn.com/mkvtools-home/) It as an 's' button and a 'extract' button, boom, done. I use this all the time when I get an mkv file that has (what it thinks is) multiple forced subtit...

Re: Heads up - Support for LG UHD drives

I have a Mac, BU50N (firmware 1.01 I believe, I don't have it with me) and around 25 4K disks. If there are any beta testing opportunities for this feature/drive support, I'd be more than happy to help. :) My bad, it's a BU40N. Offer still stands if MakeMKV plans on somehow supporting this drive an...

Re: Forced Subtitles Why So Hard??

I've found that selecting _only_ the forced (English) subtitles in MakeMKV has been rather reliable. HandBrake has a best guess algorithm to figure out what it _thinks_ the forced subtitle is, but it's not always obvious/correct. Most modern media players of note (Kodi, VLC, etc.) can render a subti...

Re: Forced Subtitle Only Selection Rule

I, like the OP, only care about forced subtitles (on Blu-Ray discs), not the full tracks, so ripping the full subtitle tracks makes it more difficult to zero in on what I need. I slightly modify the selection criteria posted earlier in this thread to explicitly select only the English forced tracks:...
