Re: Hannibal (2001) - Cannot be decrypted

I just tried Hannibal 4k and MakeMKV says there is no disc at all. EDIT: I tried a couple of times and just got the "No Disc" message on MakeMKV. I then took the disc to my UHD player and it played fine so then realized it wasn't something wrong with the disc. I then went back to the PC an...

Re: Merging Video on one disc to audio of another

I don't believe MakeMKV can do audio only... but I could be wrong. Anyway, it's just a convenient GUI for mkvextract utility (part of mkvtoolnix). YMMV It turns out that since I had already ripped both the UHD and BD versions, I don't need to extract the audio I just needed to select the video and ...

Is there a reason we need gmkvextractgui for audio extraction? Can't we use Makemkv and choose just the audio file we want?

Merging Video on one disc to audio of another

I've started a new project today. I bought the UHD version of Stranger Things and it comes with the BD versions as well. Netflix (or whoever distributes this), in their infinite wisdom includes Dolby TrueHD on the BD version but only DD 5.1 on the UHD versions. Has anyone been successful in merging ...

Re: Anyone have issues reading Westworld 4K episodes 5 & 7..

Did anyone successfully rip "Westworld" UHD discs? I'm not sure which file should be ripped since there are twice as many files (>20GB) on discs as episodes? Maybe one is HDR10 and the other DV? Also, Infuse is choosing the old Westworld show when getting images and not the new one from 20...

Re: UHD drives

@Alex .. I typically clean my discs under running tap water and using some dawn dishwashing liquid on a soft microfiber cloth. Then dry them with a clean dry microfiber cloth by wiping them from the center hole to the outside radially but NEVER in concentric circles. Even with brand new 4K UHD disc...

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS

Well I spent a couple of hours trying to downgrade the firmware and it just wouldn't work with either the Windows or DOS methods. Every time I ran the DOSFLASH32_BH16NS40.exe file, it would not detect the ASUS drive but it would find it in the BIOS. The DOS method kept giving me a NTLDR (or somethin...

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS

I'm going to attempt the flash downgrade this week but not sure I have the correct cable to connect Asus drive to old Dell Dimension 8250? Can I just unplug one of the existing optical drives and then use those cables to plug in the new Asus? One of the requirements is: A motherboard having SATA con...

I Love Lucy the Complete Series

I'm ripping these DVDs using Makemkv but on my two Asus drives it's indicating that the region setting on the discs don't match the region settings of the drives. Anyone know why this is? I'm surprised I'm getting the notification on two different Asus drives that are several years apart in model nu...

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS

First of all, big thanks to TeddyRaspin for his awesome work. However, I would only recommend following this guide only if you really understand what you are doing. The reason - additional information and tools would be announced in near future that would make the process easier and fool-proof. Spe...

I bought one, and then gave it away to a Mac user, who then put it on his Windows box because the Mac didn't like it very much.
Are there any external drives that work?

Will this external drive work with UHD discs and MakeMKV?
