Re: Get Shorty - Season 2 - program problems

I've tried makemkv and doing your backup process on my Kubuntu machine using 2 different USB DVD drives. Same results on both drives. I've tried makemkvcon on a headless machine with a built-in DVD/Blueray drive. Same results. The Kubuntu machine is dual boot so I tried makemkv in Windows and got th...

Re: Get Shorty - Season 2 - program problems

OK, that produces more or less the same failure as trying to do the rip. The program starts reading the disk and after about 30 seconds the disc stops spinning but the program keeps running. The program state is the following: Title ID: MENU Current cell: 1:7/7 Current VOBU: 2192 MakeMKV v1.17.7 lin...

Re: Get Shorty - Season 2 - program problems

Thanks. I've tried each of the 3 opening modes with the same results. They don't change anything. Not sure what you meant exactly by 'make a decrypted backup of the DVD' but looking around for ideas I found some simple instructions for using dd to copy the DVD to disk. These instructions appear to w...

Get Shorty - Season 2 - program problems

Running on Kubuntu makemkv is just having more and more problems. Tested this on a couple of systems. Disc #1 of season 2 I see the following: MakeMKV v1.17.7 linux(x64-release) started udf: udf_get_node: bad allocation extension size in udf_node Using direct disc access mode Calculated BUP offset f...

Re: The West Wing - The Complete Series fails...

I tried with different opening methods on both Linux and Windows using makemkv.

I purchased a Windows DVD ripper and it failed also.

I decided the discs were just bad, or at least not worth the time, and send them back.

The West Wing - The Complete Series fails...

Hi, I'm a licensed user who has used the program for years. I bought what looks like a very clean set of DVDs on Ebay but most all of it is failing in MakeMKV. All discs have been cleaned and there are no obvious scratches. I have tried in both Kubuntu Linux and Windows with the same results. Note t...

Re: Segfault with DVD in drive

Once it had the license the segfault didn't occur. Note - instead of using the ~/.Makemkv/settings.conf I ran makemkvcon reg KEY Strangely this did not create the .Makemkv directory but did apparently put the key somewhere that makemkvcon was apparently happy with. I did this on two machine and it w...

Re: How to add license for a machine that only runs makemkvcon

Thanks. Between that thread and some comments elsewhere I realized I should not look at the man page online at sites I know nothing about but rather I should run makemkvcon --help which showed an option makemkvcon reg KEY Running that command appears to have solved the segfault problem in my other t...

Re: Segfault with DVD in drive

I think if the instance of MakeMKV you're using is properly licensed, you won't get the 'your application is too old' message. You'll only get the notice that a newer version is available. I wonder if that has anything to do with it? Very possibly, at least for the 'too old' message. The problem is...

Re: Segfault with DVD in drive

Make sure that you either have write access to device \"/dev/sr0\", are member of \"cdrom\" group or have CAP_SYS_RAWIO enabled. Are you in the cdrom group? Run 'groups' Yes, I believe so: mark@science:~$ groups mark adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev users lpadmin sambashare mark@scien...

How to add license for a machine that only runs makemkvcon

For a server type machine with no X on it, but makemkvcon installed, how do I provide my license number?

Thanks in advance.

Segfault with DVD in drive

I have a few machines here - 2 Kubuntu, one Ubuntu server. I get various segfaults using 1.17.4 depending on what I'm trying to do. However one consistent one I'm seeing is a Kubuntu 23.10 machine segfaults with a disc in but not when the drive is empty: With no DVD the drive I can scan the machine ...

Re: makemkv-1.17.2 stopped working completely

OK, it hasn't completely stopped working. It either has to do with a specific disc or the fact that I had a disc in the drive when starting the program. Starting the program again with nothing in the drive and then inserting a different disc it worked. Never seen this problem in the past but glad it...

makemkv-1.17.2 stopped working completely

I'm using Kubuntu 22.04.1 LTS fully updated as of yesterday. makemkv has been working fine as recently as about 3-4 days ago, but this morning it fails. I get a popup window labeled "MakeMKV BETA popup" that says 'Fatal error occurred, program will now exit.' I hit ok and the program goes ...
