Found a program called MediaInfo and yes it is Interlaced unfortunately..thanks mate.

Ok...really embarrassing silly question time....how do I tell if it's interlaced sir? BDInfo? I'd say it is interlaced since Handbrake won't accept the mkv files created by MakeMkv.

Oh yes sorry folks! A long night spent messing around with rippers when it was a codec problem the whole time. Looks like I'm going to have to transcode this bitch...sigh. I know it's not a MakeMkv question but what do I use? RipBot264?

I notice the codec is VC-1...is this still a problem for MakeMKV? I'm wondering if that's why xbmc can play it or handbrake process it....feeling a little silly about the thread title now.

Checked the disc and it's cleaner than clean. For the first time I tried loading one of the mkv files into Handbrake and it couldn't process it at all. Is there anything I can do? Is there some alternative to MakeMKV that could defeat the protection? Thanks guys!

It's brand new mate! The six titles with the good stuff are all distorted and the crappy promo works fine so it can't be a dirty disc!?!? /hurries off to check the disc.

Sent an email to the creator of Hawaii Beaches and he says he spent $5000 on the protection for it. Seems like bullshit to me but what do I know.

I am a noob to makemkv but I can still appreciate how good it is. I used it for the second time today with two different ambient BluRays: Christmas Fireplace and Hawaii Beaches I put the generated mkv files on a usb key and attempted to play them with xbmc. The mkv files from the first BluRay, Chris...
