Re: Drive flashing - Linux command line or Windows?
I've never flashed on Linux, but I have flashed using the command line on macOS. It's fine. As I understand it, SDFtool is just a GUI for the command line flash utility included with MakeMKV.
In the end, regardless of platform, we're all using the same flash utility.

Re: version expires?
If you buy MakeMKV it'll work without expiration. You can use it on any platform MakeMKV supports (Windows, macOS, or Linux). I purchased MakeMKV a few years ago and haven't had to update my license key since. The only reason I notice that the beta key has expired is because folks start complaining ...

Re: Ripping 4K UHD Disks
My ISP does not block my access and I was able to download new HKs earlier this week. My DNS is set to Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) On this forum, lots of Comcast/Xfinity customers have had upstream blocking problems that required either a VPN or turning off some kind of advanced security setting on their r...

Re: Suzume (2022) Bonus Disc Debug Code
Not necessarily true.I've had discs that gave me debug codes that ultimately successfully ripped with no error message, but were broken/corrupted during playback. Were they DVDs or a blu-ray? As I understand it, MakeMKV uses the content hash table that's part of the blu-ray specification to verify ...

Re: MakeMKV Fails to Open Discs on BRAND NEW DVD Discs
MakeMKV's only purpose is to copy the bits from an optical disc into a file on your computer. If you choose to make a backup, which creates a .iso file in the case of a DVD, or make a .mkv file directly from the disc, the outcome is the same; a 1-to-1 copy of what's the on the disc. It is only after...

Re: SDFtool Flasher
Thanks for the reply, @MartyMcNuts. I've never used Terminal, and I know you listed the commands at the top of the post, but is it possible to share more detailed per-step instructions with exactly what I need to type for each step? For example, I'm not sure how to interpret step 4: "copy sdf....

Re: Strange corruption issue - MakeMKV's fault or bad HDD?
It seems a lot of these third party PCIe USB expansion cards could be cheaply made junk prone to failure and corruption as well. Not sure I want to risk 2 years of archiving to some $30 PCB made to a price. Maybe I just have to get used to the idea of scanning everything with ffmpeg. Maybe that is ...

Re: DOlby Vision only shows as HDR and many newbie questions
I haven't tried it myself, but a Ugoos AM6B+ with recent builds of CoreElec can supposedly do it all.

Re: The Emperor's New Groove Newer AACS protection
I have the USA Bluray of The Emperor's New Grove and Kronk's New Groove combo disc. I am trying to upload the folder for the key but I am getting " Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached." Perhaps you could copy & paste your MakeMKV log into a post. That blu-ray seems to b...

Re: Help with 4K BluRay Burner - ?????
I have a modern Pioneer drive I purchased from a seller here connected to my Mac via USB. It is an internal drive, a Pioneer BDR-S13UBK, that is in a Vantec enclosure.
I've never used the drive to burn a disc, although I'm sure it could.

Re: Dvd/Bluray ripping machine parts selection
Pioneer drives are the most highly regarded these days. Unfortunately a recent Pioneer firmware update disables MakeMKV's ability to rip UHDs on those drives. The sellers on this forum have access to Pioneer drives with older, working firmware and are your best bet to get a Pioneer. Personally, I ha...
