The same thing has happened on the DIsney DVD Collectable Tin Complete Goofy Collection. MakeMKV would not create the ISO, but DVD Decryptor did with no issues.


Funny, as I have multiple Disney DVDs where DVD Decrypter dies because of memory leaks, as the discs have way too many playlists than ...

Why not just renaming xpvcrt.dll to msvcrt.dll then?

First of all: Leawo uses parts of MakeMKV witout asking the devs of MakeMKV. See the warning at https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1514

As of today their BluRay Ripper still contains various (outdated) MakeMKV executables:

You could try using another Java version. For example download a current LTS release from Adoptium and point MakeMKV in the settings to the path where the java.exe of that installation lies.

In my opinion, they’re either reverse-engineering it or developed it themselves. But DVDFab has already been known to use a repackaged version of makemkv, so anything is possible.


Never heard about that one. Only about https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1514 Leawo BluRay Ripper

Honest question: Why should anyone do this these days? Place the MKV file on a USB drive and kinda any modern media device will be able to play it.

then start MakeMKV without the disc being in the drive and set the opening mode beforehand.

Just today I ripped my (german) Zootopia 2 BluRay.

MakeMKV showed me the main movie in two playlists. in 00800 vor the English texts and (I think it was) 01714 for the German texts.

You have to select the correct playlist to rip.

PS: my Bluray ONLY has German and English... not a single other ...

Trying to be a positive example here. never had any problems with the Vantec NexStar DX and never any problems with the Vantec NexStar DX 2 with all of my three drives within one of them.

Maybe DVDshrink would be a better tool for you then. Though it is quite old, and can't cope with some DVD copy protections.

Using MediaInfo, even within the folder structure, the M2TS file (on the left) does not display any information about languages, on the right the mpls file does:

so in this case MediaInfo seem not to care ...

Which streams are listed when you open the DVD with MakeMKV on the appropriate track?

I've found a workaround on Reddit, first backing up the Blu-ray using MakeMKV, then delete the PLAYLIST folder from that backup and then use MakeMKV to rip that backup. That way, MakeMKV displays all individual episodes.


And you lose all information about language and other tags of all streams ...

Besides, m2ts files (as much as I know) don't have any information about chapters or language tags. One should work with the corresponding playlist.

Once you ripped every extra video, one wouldn't really need the structure anymore, I would have thought.

I do know, that a very few DVDs place extra videos within the menu part of the disc, which MakeMKV cannot make a video from, but I have only like 1 or 2 DVDs with that.
