Can't rip a DVD extra

Post by GlitteringFacade »

I'm trying to rip a specific extra on a DVD and MakeMKV can't seem to detect it or rip it when I rip the entire DVD.

Any suggestions?

Reminds me of my problem at https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=21043

Do you have some "Title skip vts" messages in your log maybe?

Thanks.

Still having trouble. Is there a simpler option?

Unfortunately, I can't use DVDshrink, I'm on a mac.

It's weird because even when I try to open the DVD manually I can't find a VOB file with the extra in it. Also, when I view all the VOB files in VLC directly I can't find the extra. But when I play the DVD in the DVD player I can access it via the menu. WTF?

Most DVD players usually have an "info" button on the remote, that display title/chapter information, usually a cryptic string like "5/13" or so. Can you get the title and chapter number for the hidden feature?

I'm using an external drive to read the DVD. I can't see any way to find the string but using VLC I can watch the extra and its Chapter 2 Title 1.
