Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2024
My Verbatim/Pioneer 35888 shit the bed a few days ago and now I'm looking for something more durable. I've had it for just under two years and it's already stopped reading discs. They spin and it sounds like it's supposed to, but neither the OS nor MakeMKV sees anything :cry: I'll be buying and fla...

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
Although, dialogue now seems to be almost exclusively on the left channel On the computer, that is. This goes for both The Killer (2022) and The Phone
This is so random

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
A thousand thanks, kind stranger. I got it to work. The music is where it's supposed to be on the computer.
And so it is when I try to convert to FLAC again, so it must've been the Zidoo being dumb. Not surprising; it's an extremely random device.

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
It would seem that some titles don't play back properly in or do not encode properly to FLAC. The music is almost exclusively in the right channel, but just the music. I've seen this on a different retail Blu-ray (Scandinavian release of Werewolves Within), but it doesn't happen when I play the disc...

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
FLAC seems to have done the trick! I ripped The Killer (2022) last night and the track was over 3200 Kbps. I tested FLAC support on the Zidoo using that The Man from Nowhere (Ajeossi) with the wonky, low-bitrate track. It's a remux of the Russian release I have because my Well Go USA disc died of di...

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
OK so you seem to have done it properly, or is my lossless FLAC file just that small because there's no more data?! I'm not sure what's going on. I need at least one of the files to contain all of the audio, of course. That a lossy file is created is fine.

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
I have no idea if the Zidoo supports FLAC for movies. Are we sure that the 1384 Kbps file I'm left with after unchecking the lossy core isn't just the lossless part? That's some hella lossless compression on an already losslessly compressed file! It was 2820 Kbps when they were still combined. I'd l...

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
The FLAC conversion seems to have split the audio tracks into two, so I don't think FLAC is the solution here.

Re: Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
Thank you very much for your reply. I very much appreciate it, although this much detail was not necessary for this particular operation
I don't know if FLAC would work. I can try tonight. I'm using a projector, so just testing something like that isn't really possible.

Converting DTS-HD MA or ripping the same as LPCM
Hello there. I know there are posts about this elsewhere, but it all goes right over my head. What I would highly appreciate is if someone could explain to me like I'm five exactly how to set up MakeMKV v1.17.2 on a Mac with Ventura how to either convert DTS-HD MA to LPCM and/or rip as LPCM when the...

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
The Verbatim 43888 I just received reads UHD Blu-rays out of the box. It was ~€100 on Amazon DE. It's a rebadged Pioneer of course, "BD-RE PIONEER BD-RW BDR-UD04 1.14 AGDL085887WLd". Seems exactly the same as the previous two Verbatims I've had, except for the USB-C connector in place of t...

Re: Can't read AACS VID from disc
Thank you. I don't know what else it could be. I searched using one of the error messages My Sassy Girl gave me and I found this thread. The explanation in here seemed logical, but I don't know now that it opened another older disc without any trouble.
