Ouch. I swear it was tested....
This is a bug, will post the update shortly.

UPDATE: 1.18.0 has a bug - the program crashes when it is unable to open BD disc, and for most UHD discs. 1.18.1 is coming...

I’m looking forward to that … !

Right …  I’m getting similar issues, as well. The updated copy of MakeMKV will happily back up a 2k disk: or turn it into a series of MKV files. But, when a 4k disk is inserted, it starts to read a 4k disc: then shows a fatal error. I don’t know how to export the logs: otherwise I would include them...

Frustrating, isn’t it … ?

It has been a long time since I've been willing to install any update from Apple on day 1. I use all of their stuff and I don't update any of it for usually a couple of weeks after an update is released. If there are serious zero-day security fixes, I will probably update sooner, but still not on d...

You could always go back to macOS 15.3.2.

To be honest, dcoke22, I had thought of it.

But?

Buying a refurbished Windows machine, and putting Make MKV on it would be simpler.

As would waiting a few days!

Either are as frustrating!

The updated version for 15.4 will be available in a couple days.

I hope so, Mike: this is very frustrating … !

Mike said it'll be a couple of days...

I *hope* so, Davo, this is frustrating!

Whilst the Fatal Error/Sequoia 15.4 situation is going on … ?

Are there alternatives: for those of us who don’t have access to a spare computer, or to a VM?

I’ve been having this issue, as well: do we have an ETA for the update?

Right … what with everything else that’s happening for my copy of Aliens?

I’ve just upgraded to macOS Sequoia 15.4: only to find I’m getting ‘Fatal Errors’.

I appreciate that MakeMKV will need updating to get around this.

Do we have a time frame on this?

Wash the disc with warm water and liquid soap. Would that work? Should it be needed? The disc is *literally* fresh out of the package. Try it. New discs very often have a film on it that is invisible but makes them hard to read. I pretty much wash all UHD discs before I rip them. OK, Cheers, Cooper...

As an extra thought, and before I wash the thing in soapy water? I’ve *just* tried backing the disc up, again: and, after a lot of ‘Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERROR’ warnings, been told ‘The volume key is unknown for this disc - video can’t be decrypted’ What the fornication is goi...

Once again, Marty: thanking you for the help.

The model I got was the Verbatim you suggested: and it worked with a four-k copy of The Rise of Skywalker I had sitting around.

thanking you, once again …
