Re: disc "rips" to backup/X but files contain no data

OMG! I'm an idiot. I just didn't see the DECRYPT FILES TICK BOX in the pre-roll popup window. Thanks!

When I do a "rip to mkv file" the UHD data gets decrypted and stuck into a matroska container that plays. I don't know why a full backup won't work. I think I'm doing the same thing I've always ...

disc "rips" to backup/X but files contain no data

I'm trying to rip After Hours UHD. The AACS was finally updated, so I was able to rip and remux the main title to an MKV file just fine. The problem I'm having is trying to BACKUP the entire disc to an iso file or folder structure. MakeMKV proceeds as if it's doing its job, spends about an hour ...

FAIL! I didn't get a "this disc cannot be read" but the resultant files are unreadable. FML :-(

how to create VUK from AACS dump file?

Rather than wait for the MakeMKV team to create the VUK for every disc version, is there any way that we could create them from our own AACS dump files, and then share them for inclusion to everyone? I'm not really understanding why we must retain this bottleneck, not to mention extra work for staff ...

Re: Showgirls UHD

Did you turn ON

MakeMKV Preferences/General/Enable Internet access

? And are you sure your router/firewall/ISP isn't blocking your computer's access to makemkv.com?

If so, you might also try trashing /Users/<username>/Library/MakeMKV/_private_data.tar

And, as always: try turning it off & on ...

Re: After Hours failing AACS 🥭

That's what I figured. I did read that "after sending dumpfile it may take 12-48 hours...or longer"; I just wanted to be sure I'd sent it to the right place, in the right way, and wasn't supposed to find a thread here somewhere. :wink:

Yep. Patience grasshopper. https://em-content.zobj.net/source ...

"After Hours" (1985) failing AACS 🥭

I emailed the dumpfile to svq@makemkv.com midday yesterday.

MKB20_v77_AFTER_HOURS_9F14.tgz

This disc has been out for THREE DAYS! Others have already ripped their copies. What's going on with MakeMKV... AND HOW are these other people ripping them already, when I cannot? :?: :|

Re: SDFtool Flasher

BBCode isn't allowing me to use any formatting tools, so this will look like crap...sorry.


EDIT: PROBLEM SOLVED

TL;DR: if you !@#$ things up using the MacOS way, get ahold of a windoze box and use the GUI firmware do it all program.

I re-flashed directly to the "MK" firmware for the LG ...

was there some reason to STOP at 1.10.7?

I vaguely remember there being some reason to NOT "upgrade" beyond MakeMKV 1.10.7. Does anyone know what that was about?

Re: Ender's Game Bluray

How do you identify which *version* of the damn blu-ray it is? BestBuy/Target/Steel/Netflix/RedBox/Retail/etc./etc./etc.??? Has anyone figured out which track for each version is the actual damn movie?

screw it. I'll just re-read the book. Idiot MPAA.

Re: subtitles FAIL on "Les Cent et une Nuits" aka "101 Night

Oh! That's a very nifty feature. :-)

Ok, I have done a *TESTDUMP* from the MacTheRipper disc image (which does play fine in VLC, audio, subtitles, and all). I don't know what I'm gonna do in the future, if MakeMKV can't rip a disc, as MacTheRipper no longer runs on these newfangled OSXes ...
