Update::
Well handbrake also crashed Linux system, after about 2 days and 20 or so DVD's. So NOT a makemkv issue.


FYI:: Going to upgrade to a 1000W PS as next step.

Thanks for all the help from folks here.

Thanks for the suggestions. FYI, I run mdadm RAID1 w/spare on all my mounted filesystems, so hopefully that shouldn't bite me. Has anyone used any sort of kernel analysis or debug tools, to capture hardware issues up to failure point, in some sort of telemetry file (other than /var/log/messages)?

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that, as noted in my long rambling first post, understand if you missed that. I tried just using the physical eject button and failed, so next I just tried using the makemkv eject button, and failed as well. Doesn't seem to be a repeatable number of occurrences to ...

Using handbrake on same DVD's does not crash the system. Now on DVD #21 consecutively and no issues. Something with the makemkv interplay with the CDROM drive opening and closing media drawer.

Took 5 DVD's before crashing this time, attached is the strace (bzip2).

I am going to run strace next against makemkv, so see if I can capture, hopefully, useful system calls happening at time of crash. Will post here when completed.

Started somewhere on 1.14.* code set, not sure when unfortunately, currently running 1.15.0 . Long time (4 years plus) user of Makemkv) user, and paid subscription. My Linux (Debian 10.3) system sucessfully rips DVD's (not BD's) a few times, can be up to 10 or as little as 2 consecutively, then the ...

Just confirmed that 1.12.0 installed on Arch linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 works. Thank you!

Is there a solution for a non "docker container makemkv" ?

Still waiting for "mike admin" to provide detailed instructions on his "simple fix".

Hey Mike, You bet: # ls -laR /sys/bus/scsi/devices/2:0:0:0/ /sys/bus/scsi/devices/2:0:0:0/: total 0 drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 0 Jan 28 14:21 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 0 Jan 27 21:23 .. drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Jan 27 21:23 block drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Jan 27 21:23 bsg --w------- 1 root root 4096 Jan 2...

Hey mike admin,

Can you give specific instructions on your simple fix??

basti0001,

If you look at my output, you will see that I indeed already have the sg module loaded. So in my arch case the sg module is NOT the issue.

Best Regards

Mike, What exactly is the simple fix?? I have the sg module loaded, with valid sg device for the CDROM, and yet only version prior to 1.10.9 on my Debian (arch based) system can locate the drive. I have sg loaded, i.e.: # lsmod | grep sg sg 29973 0 ll /dev/sg* scsi_mod 191405 4 sg,libata,sd_mod,sr_m...
