Re: External drive has died. Nhich new one should I get?

If the testing zittrig suggests proves that the drive is indeed dead, perhaps talk with Bluntman, a seller on this forum helping out his fellow Canadians. https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=21354

Re: Fairly inexpensive PC for Handbrake use?

My current machine I use for encoding is an M2 Pro Mac mini. It has 10 cores & 10GB ethernet and I paid about $1100 for it on the Apple refurbished store a little more than a year ago. That M2 Pro 10 core CPU gets a Geekbench multicore score of 12,395 and a Passmark Multithread Score of 21,855 ....

Re: Migration UHD multiple titles and files

The single large file is almost assuredly just the film.

DVDCompare.net can helpful in figuring out what's on a disc: https://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=67751

https://thediscdb.com can also be helpful, but it doesn't seem to have Migration (2023).

Re: Fairly inexpensive PC for Handbrake use?

Apple Silicon CPUs are relatively easy to understand. The current CPUs are the M4 models. Before the M4, there was the M3, and the M2 before that and the first was the M1. Inside each family there's 3 models (sometimes 4). There's the vanilla M# chip (e.g. M4), then there's the Pro chip (e.g. M4 Pro...

Re: 50% success rate with older drive

That's cool. And a worthwhile last ditch effort to save some scratched DVDs. For posterity, it is worth noting that generally speaking, the coating on DVDs is different than on blu-rays. There's more coating on a DVD, but the coating on a blu-ray is more abrasion resistant. Things might not work exa...

Re: Fairly inexpensive PC for Handbrake use?

If you want to use Intel Quick Sync Video to do hardware encoding, Wikipedia has a handy chart showing which CPU generations support which parts of Intel Quick Sync. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Quick_Sync_Video#Hardware_decoding_and_encoding For instance, if you want to do 10-bit h.265 encod...

Re: Is it possible to rip a 4K UHD Bluray into SDR instead of HDR?

I'm new to all this, so apologize in advance. Today I installed Make MKV and ripped my copy of Star Wars The Force Awakens, only to find out that it ripped in HDR. I have an HDR monitor capable of displaying it, but I was wondering if it would be possible to rip it into SDR instead of HDR? MakeMKV ...

Re: Fairly inexpensive PC for Handbrake use?

I'm spending a lot of time encoding with Handbrake. What fairly inexpensive store PC could I get for doing it. I'd like to just put it upstairs and let it do its thing. That way it would free my regular PC that I'm using for it now for better things. I can find a keyboard and have a monitor and mou...

Re: Chilly Gonzales - Solo Piano (Deluxe Edition) bonus DVD

I would guess that the error is power related. I think a BP60NB10 is a USB connected & powered drive and I suspect it would work if it was connected to USB ports with more power.

Ok. I don't see the checkbox do I need to re-install ?
After you select the backup option, the checkbox is on the same screen as where you select the location for the backup to be saved.

Re: Bluey Season 1 - 3 Blu-ray - Certain episodes only duplicate French audio tracks

I'm sorry, never got the ping for the response. Yes, the tracks are entirely in French, English Subs. When put into hardware or played off a disc drive the English tracks appear and play properly but MakeMKV seems to only find the French tracks. If you try ripping those titles and including all of ...
