I'm ripping my replacement direct out of the box and into my S13 Pio drive. I really hope it gets through this rip.

EDIT: Finally. I've now ripped it successfully.
How many GB was the rip (extended cut)?
It's 63GB on Windows NTFS.

Re: The Abyss 4K

So after the failure I cleaned a bit using only micro fiber cloth. Not very intense cleaning and the next rip worked. Who knows!

Re: The Abyss 4K

I returned my one disc to Amazon and got a new one from Walmart today. Sped through the rip really fast until the end....then it failed...of course. I have a feeling the disc is not bad and that I just have an Asus drive that doesn't like the 3 layers. That's my guess at this point but I don't know ...

Could you elaborate on what you did to clean them? I've done soap and water pretty rigorously but haven't had any luck with abys...

Re: The Abyss 4K

Is it possible that MakeMKV just needs an update to make this disc work properly?

Thanks. 3.10 Thanks for the quick reply. I'm on the same but cannot get it to rip. Sounds like I need to do some h...

Setup a beta server and used playback with Exoplayer and DV does not trigger. Only HDR10. If someone could post the correct E...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

If anyone can expand on this I would appreciate it. I still can't get DV to trigger with the latest Emby beta. I have re-ripped my file with the latest MakeMKV and no go. Help appreciated. Once you have downloaded the app from the link I have posted, you should sideload it in the shield. If you hav...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

Yes it's easy, you have 2 options(I've tested both with my Shield Pro 2019) 1) Download ExoPlayer and playercorefactory.xml from this thread and install both in kodi. You can now play your rips with DV. 2) Download TSMuxer from this thread and remux the mkv to .ts and play with plex. #1 takes a lit...

I did some searching on this thread using the relevant terms but didn't come up wi...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

MakeMKV 1.15.1 supported DV, but in a proprietary way that the author invented. Once the MKV spec itself was updated for the DV flags, he released 1.15.2 which conformed to the spec. So if you want maximum forwards compatibility, make sure everything with DV is ripped with 1.15.2. Thank you. Plex a...
