The latest version is currently a problem on linux. You need to install an older version of MakeMKV.

Re: Disc is being loaded
You need to compile the packages. Follow the instructions here: https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=224 Instead of the latest makemkv-oss and makemkv-bin files, find the older versions here: https://www.makemkv.com/download/old/ Use gunzip first before using tar to unpack both ar...

Re: Preferred/best base image/distro for makemkv?
I should be the same on all distros.
Currently we have an issue where the latest 1.18.x release is not working on Linux for some. For now the solution is to install 1.17.7.

Re: Disc is being loaded
Many Linux users (and me) report 1.8.x is not working well. Solution for now is to install 1.17.7.

You have to install an earlier version for now. Works for me on Arch.

You can use it on any number of machines at your site. Cross platform.

Re: Full Disc
Yes, the Backup function will create an ISO file of the whole disc (for DVDs, for Blu-rays it creates a folder).
Do not open the disc on the main page. Select the Backup icon under the menu bar.

Re: VLC Player: Keystrokes for Zoom?
I don't know of any and searching doesn't find a solution, so I suspect it is not possible.

Re: VLC Player: Keystrokes for Zoom?
Here is what grok has to say: The issue you're describing with VLC Media Player's zoom function—where it changes the window size but doesn't enlarge the image within the window—can often be addressed by using VLC's **Interactive Zoom** feature or other methods to magnify a specific portion of the vi...

Re: VLC Player: Keystrokes for Zoom?
As said in the discussion, it will zoom smaller window sizes to larger but stops when you reach full screen. If you start at full screen it does not change the window.
I'm guessing you want the image zoomed within a full screen window, but it doesn't seem to do that.

Re: In-video text being removed
MakeMKV cannot remove hard-coded subtitles, or make any other changes to the image.
Handbrake will burn the subtitles into the image, at the cost of a little processing time.

Re: No menu / credits / small videos
On DVD some short segments and the menus themselves are stored in special menu videos which MakeMKV cannot see. I don't recall other software being able to do it either.
