I would suggest you read the installation instructions again and follow them. You are making several big mistakes!

Hint: You do not need to sudo EVERY command, only the apt and make install bits.

Why are you trying to install ffmpeg? You only need to do that if you need 24 bit FLAC. And I don't think that's even an issue anymore with newer distros. Just follow the official instructions (minus the ffmpeg bits at the end) and it should be fine. I've installed MakeMKV on Pop OS 24.04 (Pop is ba...

Use MKVToolNix. It can strip out unwanted audio, or switch what is the primary audio.
All without re-encoding. It just re-muxes the MKV so it's much faster.

If you already have a mkv with subs/audio that you don't want the easiest and quickest way to remove them is with MKVToolNix.

MKVToolNix will allow you to change the flags on the subtitles so they are forced or optional.

I'm not certain, but I think this is in reference to discs of the original Doctor Who, not the 2000s reboot. DVDCompare.net ( https://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=51024 ) for disc 2, season 10, doesn't list anything that's a 4:36 track. However, there's the Carnival of Monsters Photo Gal...

I haven't noticed this and I have all the BD releases, but mine are the US version.

Have you used a player to watch the disc to see what is in that track? It seems like an odd track with 46 segments on a 4:36 track.

The only official way to install on Linux is via the makefiles. You only have to install the dependencies once, the first time you install MakeMKV. You don't need to install them again when upgrading to a new version of MakeMKV. It's not that difficult to run ./configure, make and sudo make install....

I've had lots of brand new discs in sealed packages fail reading. They looked perfectly clean. But after cleaning them they work fine. Lots of times new discs have a thin invisible layer of soap scum left on them after manufacturing. Your eyes can't see it but it's enough to blind the laser pickup. ...

Just because the Mac is supplying enough power via USB-C does not mean that the PC is. It would be worth it to just try to power the drive. And one drive working and the other not working may be that the working drive draws less power. But if you are seeing other people having the same issue with th...

Update: I swapped to a different external drive (was HL-DT-ST BD-RE BU40N 1.03, is now Pioneer BD-RW BDR-UD04 1.14). Both drives work on MacOS X. Only the Pioneer works on Linux. I can now use both drives simultaneously, but I'm just curious why the BD-RE BU40N doesn't work on Linux. It does show u...

Are you using a snap or flatpak? If so then you probably need to give it permission to access the drives.

You need to select Computer and then go to where the drives are mounted (probably /media or /mnt).

Mac mini on a full desk at the base of my bed, with a USB to my player on my over the bed "desk" for 14 years.... Do you have another drive you can test with? While I think that you have a newish drive, they can still degrade over time. Have you tried with a powered USB hub close to where...

I have been having this issue since the last update where any and all 4k movies or TV shows are not converting, they all go through the process of Folder process or by selecting the drive to convert and once finished, there is no sound or picture and after several minutes, a message pops up "c...
