Re: Long Scan

What happens if you make a decrypted backup of the disc (the icon of the yellow folder and the green arrow on the first screen of MakeMKV) and then open the backup and create .mkv files from the backup?

Re: SDF error recovering BU40N DE_LG_BU40N_1.00.bin


The drive will read and play older DVDs but not 4K UHD


DVDs and blu-rays (including 4K UHDs) use different wavelength lasers. Most optical drives have two different lasers because of this. It is possible only the 'red' laser for DVDs (and probably CDs) works while the 'blue' laser for blu-rays ...

Re: Doubts about the future


At the same time, I can still read my encrypted Blu-rays. I expected MakeMKV to stop working completely since, as far as I know, it requests decryption keys from the MakeMKV servers.

2. So what's actually going on? Is it still working because not all of the servers are down (like this forum), or ...

Re: Website Down


Thanks—where can I find that?

On the other hand… It seems to me the site runner has been sitting with a broken website for a while now. At best they’re unaware—which is why I made this post. Of course, I couldn’t go to the site and find a support contact to use because right now there is no ...

You could try the different DVD Opening Modes to see if the outcome is different.

Re: New user trying to decrypt a number of 4K UHD blurays, all give "unknown volume key"


Hello
Tring to rip Avatar Fire and Ash 4K version of the movie. Guess is to new.


What does your MakeMKV log say?

If MakeMKV is having trouble downloading keys, that's one thing.

If the necessary key for your specific disc isn't available, that's a different thing. If that's the case, attach ...

Re: Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair UHD rip not progressing


This process worked for disc two but not disc one. I keep getting the "The volume key is unknown for this disc - video can't be decrypted" message. Even after backing up the disc to the drive.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Re: The Sopranos S6, Part 2, disc 2 (DVD)

Errors like those generally mean the drive is having trouble reading a spot on the disc. The standard advice is to gently clean the disc and try again. It might also be the case that the disc is damaged. If that's the case, try a different copy of the disc.

Re: Blueray/Commentary issue

Recent Samsung TVs do not support DTS audio.

There are two competing, different ways to encode audio that you'll find on discs. One is Dolby Digital and the other is DTS . There are different versions of each of these formats with DVDs supporting the older, lossy (and therefor smaller) compression ...
