Video default destination

Post by prickly »

Since reinstalling Windows 10 and MakeMKV I have had an issue with the video default destination.

I have it set to a custom destination, E:\MakeMKV (which is what it was set to prior to reinstalling).

But now MakeMKV will only output to D:\Video\[movie-name] and will complain that this directory does not exist. If I tell it not to output to this directory it will not output an .mkv file.

MakeMKV 1.14.7 x64

Try selecting "SemiAuto", and set "E:\Makemkv" in the text box.

Thank you, that worked.

Is creating a sub folder with the movie name a new MakeMKV behavior? I've not seen it do that before.

Well, it's actually the DISK name (which is usually the same), and it's been that way for Semi-auto as long as I've been using MakeMKV.
