Re: Frida 2-disc DVD Not Recognized

Again thank you. Having tried several other things it now appears the disc i "protected" with a bad sectors scheme. I tried using a brand new EXTERNAL drive and things behaved differently. Now it may be that it is just dirty, but I have to admit getting two copies of this movie with that p...

Re: Frida 2-disc DVD Not Recognized

Thank you for taking the time to respond! I expected an email alert and didn't get one, which is why it is taking me this long to check in. The disc was cleaned. So was the second one when I exchanged the first. All my other discs work fine, but not only did I try to get a new set of discs thinking ...

Re: Changes Aspect Ratio

Set width to 16, height to 9, unit to 3 (aspect ratio), and remuxed. Plex still plays 4:3. No Idea what you did (changed this n the header edtor?) and then remux? The Header editor data can only be saved but not remuxed. But it should work if you load the file in the "MKVToolNIX GUI" muxx...

Re: Changes Aspect Ratio

Thank you for taking the time Grauhaar, and yes, I did open the proper tool before remuxing. But here is the good part. Around midnight last night, after searching and reading and trying and searching, I found a spot where the video file properties were described and how to access them. When I did, ...

Re: Changes Aspect Ratio

Very frustrated over this issue, so please be patient with me. This happens from time-to-time and still, after several years, I can't seem to resolve it. The instructions here were different so I tried them. Downloaded and installed the latest MKVToolNIX. Verified pixels were 720x480. Set width to 1...

Re: The Disaster Artist

Thank you for your reply. I am still learning and now I know what to do. I found that I could open files manually and, working my way through the list of possibles, #30 seems to have worked without error. I'll watch it today and see if that is correct. If so, I won't bother you again about this but ...

The Disaster Artist

Cannot rip my dvd using Makemkv. "Failed to open disc" If I must open manually, please provide the exact string I need to use to get the title video plus the default audio and the default English subtitles if possible. I am very grateful for any help I can get.

Re: Tangled DVD

I know this was opened 3 years ago but I'm having the problem right now and I don't see an answer. Might there be one? I only own the DVD. Thanks.

Dances With Wolves Special Edition

Anyone else have this problem and a solution? Sitting here with my "Dances With Wolves Special Edition" dvds in hand (it is 2 discs) and, after copying with MakeMKV the second disc came up without subtitles for the Indian parts. (The first disc was fine.) Thought I had made a mistake so I ...
