Re: BU40N Firmware for both MakeMKV and DVDFab

Makemkv reports the following: BD-RE-HL-DT-ST BD-RE BU40N 1.01 MZFL4T91101.

The drive seems to be ripping blue rays pretty well. I am currently ripping Star Trek the original Series. Will I encounter any problems with this drive?

Re: MakeMKV combines episodes into one file

So after Makemkv has decrypted and processed all the titles on the disc, what do you see in the panel? A line for each episode?, only one title? or a list of titles greater than the total of episodes (an image of the display output would help!) ... and how many do you tick? It only happened on two ...
