Re: watching a blu-ray disc

Still getting the same error: Blu-ray error: This Blu-ray Disc needs a library for AACS decoding, and your system does not have it. I may be reaching here, but.... does your VLC installation include libaacs.dll? I don't use Windows myself, but I suspect these people do . That library (and those ins...

Re: watching a blu-ray disc

In the Windows version of VLC be sure to select "Open Disc" and that the Blu-Ray (not DVD) button is selected. Then just select the optical drive. You may need to have JAVA installed to view the disc extras. Still getting the same error: Blu-ray error: This Blu-ray Disc needs a library fo...

Software to manage movie rips

Hey folks. Although I get my movies on blu-ray & dvd, I also rip them so I can watch them on my tablet/pc etc. At the moment I just have a folder of films in windows which is a pain to find things in. Is there something like itunes for movies that would allow me to search by director, actor year...

Re: suddenly no disc will rip

Ok I've emailed over log files for one of the problem discs. I also sent over log files for the first problem disc I encountered on 6th july, but didnt hear back. By the way, is there a way to donate to patreon to support makemkv?

Re: suddenly no disc will rip

For the Access Denied error, Preferences->General, set the MakeMKV data directory to somewhere that you have permission to write to. My recommendation is a directory like "C:\MakeMKVData", so you remember what's in there. Setting up the VLC integration should NOT interfere with MakeMKV it...

Re: suddenly no disc will rip

I just tried the backup option, and that works (not sure what it is for but I'm experimenting!), but only if I don't tick the decrypt option. I wonder if that is related?

Re: suddenly no disc will rip

Hi, this is not one disc! I ripped 30 or 40 discs with no problem. Suddenly 10 discs in a row wont rip, i.e. I can no longer rip anything. Is it possible I have inadvertently changed a seeting? Could a windows update have broken something? I was messing around with VLC workarounds to get it to play ...

suddenly no disc will rip

I've used makemkv for a few weeks ripping blu-rays, faultlessly. Suddenly every disc (4 so far!) gives a "failed to open disc" error. What might have changed? Has it expired (i have uninstalled and reinstalled). Could other software be affecting it? I literally cant get a single disc to ri...
