Thank you very much for this information. This helped me to solve (workaround) the problem :-)

The firmware dump was missing from my Linux system, but was present on Windows. So I copied the dump file over and now everything works perfectly...

I'm glad that helped. :)

Firmware dump stop working ...

I have two old (Non-Libre) Pioneer drives and both works fine with MakeMKV 1.18.3 on Debian 13. Compiled from sources.

Also integration with MakeMKV + mpv media player works as it should. No extra steps here.

Drives i got work with MakeMKV was using MakeMKV 1.17.6 (appimage)to get dump_firmware ...

I run MakeMKV 1.18.3 on Debian 13, but first i need download Firmware dump with 1.17.7. Without that firmware it is "Endless spin" with both my non-libre Pioneer BD-ROM drives. BD's & DVD's.

MakeMKV above v1.17.7 still broken on Linux

MakeMKV just won't work.

and many more.

I have found a way to get the latest version (1.18.3) working.

Edit .MakeMKV/settings.conf and add your drives name to "sdf_Stop",

In my case it looks like this:
sdf_Stop = "TEAC_BD-W26SS-B_2.02_{serial number}"

With that, the original functionality returns.


I tested this and it works if ...

I have paid key and i use Non-Libre BD-Drives with newest MakeMKV 1.18.3 on one my machine. Works fine.

What i did:
1. Install MakeMKV 1.17.6 (Add Paid Key)
2. Open MakeMKV and put DVD in.
3. Wait MakeMKV to get firmware file.
4. Install newest MakeMKV 1.18.3 and enjoy.

Backup that .MakeMKV ...

No need. If that version of yours works fine, use that.
But if you want to upgrade and something is not working right, you can always downgrade to older working version and use same paid key.

Maybe there is space or something on your copy/paste?

Open Terminal and add the key from there.

This adds the Key to the .MakeMKV/settings.conf file, on your home directory.

echo 'app_Key = "T-URt6MHxNy3HmfVojU8pE05WQ6HfgVI8S@HiIeNcWFim9rBgNlOdLFROSATCsWikcKW"' >> ~/.MakeMKV/settings.conf
