Re: Am I doing this right? (future proofing)

I seem to recall there were some bugs related to Dolby Vision support in the 1.15.x timeframe (I think). The result was things ripped on older versions of MakeMKV needed to reripped on newer versions for them to be 'proper'. Barring some other as-yet-to-be-discovered bug, I think if you're ripping ...

Am I doing this right? (future proofing)

Hey all, I lurk quite a bit here and I've been using this app for a loooong time, so apologies for the noobiness of my post. Some history... I've been using this app to rip my discs over the years to use them with Plex via ATV. As time passed and tech improved (DVD, BR, UHD) and hard drive space has...

Re: Site SSL Certificate Expired

The site's currently down, so that might be a contributing factor.

Re: Worklow for Apple 4K 2021 Dolby Vision

Atmos is also a pain in the ass because, as with Dolby Vision, there are multiple variations. Tell me about it. lol. This has been driving me crazy trying to get Atmos to trip on my speakers. Streaming services employ a channel-based, lossy version of Atmos based on Dolby Digital+ 7.1. As with the ...

Re: Worklow for Apple 4K 2021 Dolby Vision

Dolby Vision is a giant pain in the ass. There are multiple versions (aka profiles) of Dolby Vision, and even within those profiles, there are differing degrees of playback. Unfortunately, the AppleTV will not directly playback Dolby Vision originating from UHD discs. All UHD discs use Dolby Vision...

Re: Ripping Dolby Atmos into MKV

For those that mentioned Plex earlier, there's a rather heated discussion going on about Dolby Atmos, et. al. For your reading pleasure... https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-displays-wrong-colours-with-dolby-vision-on-appletv-4k/702274/238 For the tl;dr crowd, one of the Plex employees recently dropped t...

Re: WH16NS60: Flashed firmware, Won't read UHD discs

I’ve been looking into buying a new drive as my old one may be on the way out. A couple of things that I see in your post… It looks like your firmware is 1.03. If that’s true, you’re going to have to downgrade. Another is that you’re using Windows 10. I saw on another site that supposedly using the ...

Re: Prometeus crash

The 4-disc version of this film won't rip for me using 1.7.9. I get the same BD+ errors as the others listed here. I only want to rip the BR and not the 3D version. Any ideas? Edit: AH! Nevermind...I figured out the SVQ file placement thingy...it's ripping now. If there's a problem with it I'll repo...
