Re: Any thoughts or suggestions? VC-1

If its a BBC disk it's probably interlaced VC1 and you will struggle to find any open source tool to show it or re-encode it. Following advice from NomadCF in this thread. http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1096 I have had some success with Xvid4PSP on windows. I re-encode it to x...

Re: Forced subtitle stream crashes BDSup2Sub

I also think this may be an eac3to issue.

I own the Avatar Extended Collectors Edition Bluray, and I can confirm, that the extracted forced sub (PGS or .sup) stream from the mkv file created by Makemkv, when extracted with mkvextract, is handled without problems by BDSup2Sub.

Re: Unable to compile 1.6.4 on Ubuntu server 10.04

Thanks z-factor, works fine for me too. Just to re-cap for anyone struggling to follow the instructions, open makefile.linux in the editor of your choice. Change line 57 from: -lpthread -lz -lrt To: -lQtDBus -lpthread -lz -lrt save the file, and retry to compile and everything builds as it should. T...

Any suggestions? I've used Xvid4PSP successfully as per the post by NomadCF in this thread. http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1096 Xvid4PSP is windows only i'm afraid., but I've also heard of people using Flip4Mac on OSX to convert but I can't confirm if that works. http://www.t...

Re: Forced Subtitles on new Dances with Wolves BD

Here's my platform agnostic workflow. 1.) Rip Bluray to mkv with Makemkv (select forced only subs in the language of your choice, before you rip.) 2.) Use Mediainfo on your finished mkv file to assertain the track number of the subtitle you need to extract. 3.) Use mkvextract on the mkv to extract t...

Re: subtitles

hello, When I rip my blu ray disc with make mkv, I keep the DTS HD audio and the subtitles but my multimedia driver ( netgear neotv 550 or WD tv live) can not read the subtitles. Could you help me please? Until such time as your media players receive a firmware update to allow them to read PGS subt...

I'm not sure but It's possibly because you fed BDSup2Sub a Forced Only PGS track to start with, so it doesn't need to apply the filter.

Re: Keeping subtitles when compressing with Handbrake...

To get my desired results, would I need to uncheck the "Subtitles English" and leave the "Subtitles English (forced only)" checked? Thanks! I believe so yes. BDSup2Sub has an "Export Only Forced" tick box in the export dialog. I would make sure you check that too. Ther...

Re: Keeping subtitles when compressing with Handbrake...

I believe HandBrake currently ignores Bluray PGS subtitles. I extract them and convert them to vobsubs then mux them into the HB generated mkv. My original WDTV will only see vobsub or srt subs in an mkv. My current work flow is as folllows: 1. Rip Bluray to mkv with Makemkv 2. Start converting Make...

Re: What optical drive works best with MakeMKV?

I think mike is referring to the facts mentioned on this page. http://www.makemkv.com/osxmmc/

As long as the bluray drive can write to some kind of media (cd-r, dvd+-r) then it should work ripping bluray disks with Makemkv on OSX. The drive doesn't have to be able to write bluray disks.
