Re: 1.4.9 to 1.4.10

With 1.4.9, I can see makemkv scanning all the source files. on 1.4.10, it gets one .m2ts file, pulls it off, and puts it into a MKV wrapper. I believe the difference between the first disk I tested, and this disk, is that the first disk used one large .m2ts video file, and this disk has the movie s...

1.4.9 to 1.4.10

So, recently, I updated my system running AHCI to 1.4.10, as it was supposed to allow the MakeMKV to see the optical drives. And it did this. Initially I tested to make sure it worked, and it pulled the movie off the disk just fine. FF to today, and I have a problem getting a movie off another disk....

Re: AHCI

I have downloaded and installed the latest : MakeMKV 1.4.10 for Windows, on my AHCI system, and it is working now. Well, I haven't finished the whole Bluray yet(its working on it), but it is definitely getting further than before.

Thanks Mike

Re: Good tool for converting MKV to H264

Thanks for the reply Spook. As I mentioned, I'm new to this so you provided a good clear explanation of how things actually work. I do have a question or two for you as a follow up. Since MakeMkv is not a transcoder does this mean that there is no quality loss during a straight conversion from a DV...

Re: Good tool for converting MKV to H264

Ok, just a little clarification for you, MKV is a wrapper, much like a zip, or iso file H264 is a video format. H264 gets places into an MKV package, along with an audio track, AC3 (Dolby) or DTS, and other things, like subtitles. Now, that being said, MakeMKV is not a Transcoder... changing one for...

Re: How to: recompress mkv made with MakeMKV

I have a few reasons to re-encode.. First, Some if not most of these Bluray rips are HUGE... Leading to only maybe 50 or so movies on a Teribyte drive, compressing can raise that number to 80 or so 2nd, because the rips are so big, they can unwieldy, copying, and playing. An uncompressed movie can t...

Re: Works Great but how do I shrink the MKVs like in ripbot?

Spook, I too have used XviD4PSP in the past, but only for converting MKV to AVI, I wasn't aware it could convert Blue ray to MKV...I take it one would use the 'Convert blue ray to FAT32 under tools? I've done some DVD ripping, but have no experience with ripping blue ray. What should I use to rip o...

I could swear I just saw this same question about 1week ago. To be fair, I didn't know the option existed then either.

Answer : <right click> unselect all

Re: Works Great but how do I shrink the MKVs like in ripbot?

I'm glad to have this program that doesn't do anything to the video/audio stream. That way I can make the decision how I want to compress the image. So, I am happy this program leaves all that alone. That being said, for my transcoding, I use something called Xvid4psp. Sounds a bit specialized, but ...

AHCI

I hate to beat a dead horse, and I've been able to get around the the need to use AHCI until recently. I've upgraded, and Apparently to run TRIM I will have to have my system configured for AHCI. MakeMKV has been very handy to cut down the number of steps required to convert a Bluray to MKV file, bu...

Re: How to get the registration code?

From what I understand of this program... the 60days is not from when YOU install the software on your computer, but 60days from when the latest release of the software... So, reinstalling the same version, will serve you no purpose, you need the next in the series.
