It should work as Woodstock describes. However, I think it should be possible to make a decrypted backup of the DVD with MakeMKV, which will make a .iso file. I think that will be able to be opened in MKVToolNix GUI where you can make .mkv files of the movie with whatever audio & subtitle tracks...
Hi, First post after lurking for a long time (and a bit "stoned" with information overload). So better to ask ... Drive Information Manufacturer: ASUS Product: BW-16D1X-U Revision: E113 Serial number: Firmware date: 2020-07-21 Bus encryption flags: 1B Highest AACS version: 20 Libr...
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.
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 ...
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...
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 ...
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...
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....
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 ...
An ISO backup with makeMKV? Must have missed that feature.
Recent versions of MakeMKV added 'backup' functionality for DVDs. It makes a .iso file. Backups for blu-rays and UHDs still make a folder, not a .iso file.
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...
