Oh, yes... MakeMKV is how I transferred it to my PC.
And did you also ask MakeMKV to decrypt it while transferring it to your PC?
Now I did! I also sent you a PM.

Thank you so much for all of your back and forth and hard work.

Re: Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

I actually don't play anything through VLC. I first convert movies I own to a smaller HEVC file with BDRebuilder and then play that through MPC-HC, JRiver, or Kodi on my HTPC. Ah, OK. I am unfamiliar with this approach, and have naively been assuming that you are using MakeMKV to process your BluRa...

Re: Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

I just played it on my dedicated Dynex Blu-ray player that actually circumvents Cinavia (I haven't heard anyone talk about that in a while :lol:). Just checking, but have you added the full path to your VLC.exe into MakeMKV's "View/Preferences/Integration" tab? (I use Linux myself, but I ...

Re: Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

Dude, the content is AMAZING! I prize it as the best gift my brother has given me. :D Is it playing in VLC now? Or are you using your dedicated BluRay player instead? (Check PM) I just played it on my dedicated Dynex Blu-ray player that actually circumvents Cinavia (I haven't heard anyone talk abou...

Re: Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

I really do appreciate all of this detailed information, but I don't ever remember needing to do any of this to get a new Blu-ray to be read in the past. MakeMKV's implementation of libaacs (which is libmmbd.so.0 on Linux) should be able to decrypt any standard BluRay automatically, which is presum...

Re: Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

Will providing the discatt.dat help here? discatt.dat is a binary file, and it should contain the disk's Volume ID (VID). However, you would also need the disk's Media Key (MK) to convert the VID into a Volume Unique Key (VUK). And so discatt.dat isn't useful on its own. Have you installed the aacs...

Re: Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

There should be enough publicly available device keys and host certificates on the Internet for libaacs to play any "standard" (i.e. non-UHD) BluRay. Obviously I cannot post any of those here though. Having said that, MakeMKV also contains an implementation of the libaacs ABI which VLC sh...

Microphone Check Blu-ray - Not Playable

I just received a new, rather unknown Blu-ray called Microphone Check: The Hidden History of Hip Hop that is definitely not in the database. I was able to copy it with MakeMKV to my desktop, but there is no way to play or convert it. What do I need to do to get this done? Is there some type of file ...

Re: Win explorer crashes when I navigate to folder with MKVs?!?

Unfortunately, Windows Explorer still crashes with MakeMKV for me. :roll: And to be clear, BDRebuilder , DVDFab and AnyDVD HD don't do this! I just don't understand with all of this overwhelming evidence that it's clearly MakeMKV and not something amiss with our computers that it hasn't been fixed, ...

It does have protection. It says "Media is AACS protected!"

2019 DTS Demo Disc Hashed Keys?

Good afternoon!

I was just wondering if anyone has received the 2019 DTS Demo Disc, which is 4K UHD, to get the hashed keys, yet?

My supervisor went to an SVS event and grabbed one for me!

EDIT: Never mind... it worked! Thanks!
