Application Failed to Initialize - finally fixed for me

So, 1.14.* all failed.

I have an x64 system, and all 64bit libs on openSuse should be in /usr/lib64

A search for libmakemkv.so.1 found an old 64bit version in /usr/lib.

Removing that, as well as libdriveio.so.0 & libmmbd.so.0 in /usr/lib, FINALLY got makemkv to work.

It was picking up a version from 2 years ago. I assume < 1.14 copied the libs into /usr/lib and 1.14 into /usr/lib64, and the old ones were never removed.

Only problem I have now, is makemkv says the disc is called LOGICAL_VOLUME_ID, & each title is of the form, title_t01.mkv. Ah well, can't have everything I suppose.

Yes, thank you!

How did you come to find out these files were the culprit?

Worked for me on OpenSUSE Leap 15.0

Same here with Tumbleweed. Those old libraries were just lurking around until at least 1.15.1, but are not part any more in 1.15.3.
Good work, pal!

The duplicate libraries were what hosed me up as well.

Upgrading from 1.14.5 to 1.15.3 and got the same error.
Found duplicates of libmakemkv.so.1, libdriveio.so.0 and libmmbd.so.0 in both /dev/lib and /dev/lib64. Guess that confused the linker.
Manually removed all, reinstalled 1.15.3 and all was well.

I hope the maintainer can fix the install process to remove old libraries during the install so the leftovers are not a problem going forward.

I found another version in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu that I had to remove. Apparently that came from a "snap" makemkv install.
