Re: Install Latest Windows Version MakeMKV
I'm just checking in to see if the beta key has been renewed yet. Also, I saw somewhere on this site that someone posted a workaround that resets the date of the MakeMKV app. If that is a valid temporary workaround, can someone please point me to it? Best, Stephen MakeMKV is free while in beta

Re: Combining Discs
MKVToolNix worked fine for me. I did get an error playing back the combined MKV file on the Zidoo when it got to the part for that would normally require a switch to the second disc.

Re: Invalid key?
Looks to me as though you missed a portion of the key... my permanent key begins w/ 'M-...", while the temp keys seem to begin w/ 'T-...'. Use the complete string.

Re: Star Wars Andor - Season 1 - Only finding first episode on each disk
Conventional wisdom is to recommend cleaning the disc gently, no matter how pristine it may appear to your eye. This may/may not help. Another thing to try is loading an older version of MakeMKV (v1.6.7?, see sig for link). This may prove problematic if you don't have a permanent key. In that case, ...

Re: Best software to shrink mkv
Hi, not sure if anyone can advise me. I ripped a UHD disk the other day. The issue was the mkv image came out at 65 gb. I am new to makemkv, so not sure if I'm doing something wrong in the settings.

Re: Star Wars Andor - Season 1 - Only finding first episode on each disk
I have a DVD set of Seasons 1 & 2 of Andor, and while MakeMKV is doing everything I expect with the Season 2 disks, I have come across a strange issue with the Season 1 disks. Basically, it goes through the check phase of the disk, but is only finding the first episode on each disk. For example...
