Re: MKV can't open good disk copy. Do devlopers want a copy?

@Woodstock, Yeah I was just was trying MakeMKV for convenience. I also make both MKV and plain MPG files using the old familiar FFMPEG. It can deal directly with VOB "MOVIE ONLY" relevant files, since I already have them in decrypted copies. Since it only needs the VOB files, it doesn't ge...

Re: MKV can't open good disk. Do devlopers want a copy?

Well @Grauhaar, here's a smarter rule: If I develop a product that can't work with files that all other products can use, I appreciate users reporting issues as well as offers to help. I may not be able to, but an opportunity to do so is usually appreciated. But that's just me. If you are one of the...

I am using MakeMKV v. 1.15.1 (Beta) on a win-10 (64 bit) system to convert a library of about 200 copied DVD movies. (I've mentioned before I've made then for years with a commercial program called "1-Click DVD Copy pro). The copied disks are unencrypted, and are usually copied with the "m...

Re: Windows doesn’t display thumbnail after DVD Rip

So based on what I've read, the MKV files are containers for the DVD native format, which is MPEG2. Is there any way to do a 1:1 conversion of the MKV files made by NakeMKV into a more standard MPEG2 file? I was hoping to use PLEX with ROKU to remotely view my video library. But it starting to seem ...

help with output file name template

I've been using MakeMKV os a collection of DVDs, copied from rentals, using a commercial product called "1-Click-DVD copy". These are decrypted copies, and in many of them I've applied the option to save "Movie Only". Some others have been saved in their entirety, when I used 8gi...

Re: Hoping to simplify manual DVD file option

Well I'm pretty satisfied with the automated operation, except maybe that it ignores the DVD video title and crates a file called Title_t00.mkv" I can rename it manually if the software cant apply the name to the output file. But the the manual operation if very confusing. was hoping to be able...

Hoping to simplify manual DVD file option

Hi, and thanks for what seems to be a perfect utility for me! I use a commercial program called "1-Click DVD copy Pro", to make personal copies of rented disks. A separate DLL takes care of the typical disk unlocking, and the software allows me to significantly reduce the size of my copy, ...
