Re: MakeMKV just won't work.

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...

Re: Should I watch for updates even though I have a paid license?

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.

Re: Beta key not working - v1.18.3 Linux

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

Bad Windows driver maybe?
Can you try with Linux distro to see if those drives works beter there.
