Re: Pioneer BDR-2213 vs Pioneer BDR-S13UBP?

I can't find a Pioneer model named BDR-S13UBP. Perhaps you mean the BDR-S13-UBK ? In any case, Pioneer updated their firmware in 2023 to disable MakeMKV's LibreDrive functionality, meaning drives with the newer firmware can't rip UHDs. Pioneer firmware update February 2023 Pretty much every Pioneer...

Is There a Linux GUI for SDFTool Flasher?

I‘m fine with CLI, but a GUI would be really nice.

Thanks for all your help. I was researching more as well and came to the same conclusion. I have a machine with 6 drives, but upgrading to 12 drives so I really like the CLI with automation.
Just out of curiosity, how many of those 12 drives will be external?

6-5-23 Order Page is Down

The order page truly is down this time. Unlike the problem Mirarora had in March, this problem can't be rectified by disabling ad-blocking and tracker-blocking. I've tried disabling those two items. I've even tried different browsers, but to no avail. I'm not sure if this is indicative of a problem ...

Come on yall, I gotta turn in these library blurays soon! 😅
You're kidding, right? You're not really going to copy Blu-Rays from the library, are you? Are they at least out-of-print?

Does Anybody Have a Script for Updating MakeMKV?

I prefer installing MakeMKV from scratch instead of using a Flatpak because Flatpaks don't integrate nicely with the rest of the system. The downside to this approach is that it makes updating to a newer version rather laborious. Instead of being able to even update via a script, I have to delete th...

Re: Can't Install on Debian 11

I'm trying to install MakeMKV 1.14.7 on Debian 11 (AKA Bullseye), but there's a dependency problem. Debian 11 uses QT version 5, but it doesn't have the libqt5-dev package. I'd rather not have to remove QT version 5 and install version 4 from the Debian 10 repository. What can I do to get MakeMKV i...

Re: Installation Script

Not sure if anyone actually uses my script, but I had to reinstall MakeMKV on another PC so I updated the script to allow you to run makemkv-install latest and it will try to grab the latest version. You may need to do a sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade since I added curl a...

Re: Installation Script

Searched for a thread like this before posting in a new thread. Here is an alternative script that performs all the same basic functions of the script in the OP but is much simpler. Should continue to function indefinitely so long as the link to the release thread does not change. [or the file name...

Re: Any Linux or *nix Users Out There Who Have a CRC Checksum for GhostBusters: Afterlife?

I do have the film myself, but I doubt that a CRC checksum would tell you much as you would expect them to be different from disc to disc as the foil pressings themselves can differ a bit on the bit level (This is why some UHD discs are playable, but not rippable and people suggest replacing even n...

Any Linux or *nix Users Out There Who Have a CRC Checksum for GhostBusters: Afterlife?

I ripped (copied) the 4K Blu-Ray of Ghostbusters: Afterlife on my PC, but unfortunately, I accidentally scratched it a bit on the tray of my Blu-Ray drive before I had a chance to copy it. I'd really like to see if the digital copy that I got from the disc is flawless or if the scratches negatively ...

Re: Problems with integration in MC

Integration in VLC seems to be broken now. Every time I try to play a Blu-ray, as soon as I hit "Play" on the "Open Disc..." dialog, VLC simply closes itself. I get a message next time I start it saying it crashed on its last run. If I disable integration and use AnyDVD, the dis...
