I can't see your attachment; it didn't appear to attach.

But I'll guess that you got a key unknown error. You have to email the dump MakeMKV created to svq@makemkv.com.

MakeMKV has a backup function that copies everything on the disc (in decrypted form, if you check the box) to a folder on your computer. You can use that backup folder and something like imgburn to make an ISO if that's your thing. Or, MakeMKV can open that backup and you can create .mkv files from ...

My VPN has no servers within the Russian borders. It has some servers close by. I may be out of luck. I've read that the Russian Federation has placed heavy restrictions of information access since the conflict with the Ukraine started. Can the automatic HK download be moved to another server outsi...

I searched for 'makemkv' in my all mailboxes search, which searches both the header info and the actual text of all messages. My license key came from "no-reply@2checkout.com" back in 2019. I think there's a different processor these days.

I don't know why things are they way they are on this forum, but my speculation is it is a way to prevent the storage needs (and the associated costs) of the server from going to super high levels. Even though a single screen shot isn't all that big, over the years the total amount of storage requir...

I think it is this one that's being referred to: It Follows (2014)

The dvdcompare.net entry says the USA version is by Anchor Bay Entertainment. Did they do disc obfuscation like Lions Gate did?

Generally you don't flash Pioneer drives. Pioneer firmware update February 2023

It is possible the optics on your drive are a bit dirty. I'm not an expert on cleaning drive optics, but I do know it can be done.

I'm a noob at using a VPN. Does "exit points" mean the server location I choose?

Yes. The same way you might use a VPN so Netflix (or whatever) thinks you're in a different country.

I'm using a VPN and that hasn't helped that I can see.

You might have to try different exit points for your VPN before you find one that isn't blocking your access to MakeMKV's key server.

Both Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis are available as reasonably priced blu-rays sets, at least in the USA. I don't think I've ever ended up with a counterfeit blu-ray when purchasing from a reputable outlet. I have found that going through the process of digitizing my collection has gotten me t...

This post is kept up to date: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide The easiest answer is to look for a seller in your region and buy a Pioneer drive with an older, supported firmware.

Are you trying to rip from a disc? "AACS directory not present, assuming unencrypted disc" is an unusual thing to see in a log for a blu-ray. The source file '/BDMV/STREAM/00001.m2ts' is corrupt or invalid at offset 3172196352, attempting to work around ^ messages like that usually mean th...

I confirmed that the disc is not faulty by using AnyDVD to copy the entire contents to a hard drive.

At least I don't have to return it to Amazon.

You can use MakeMKV's backup option to create an encrypted backup before a decryption key is available to make sure the disc is readable.

I've been looking for some older posts where Radiocomms237 and I both commented on the usefulness of making decrypted backups as a beginning step to creating .mkv files.

Here's that thread: Most effcient method to Rip new Makemkv files with subtitle and forced subtitles

You've got to email that dump into svq@makemkv.com.
