Yes the discs are clean and yes, this occurs on multiple discs with multiple drives and no, cleaning the disc(s) makes no difference. Sometimes people see a real improvement if they clean the optics of their drive. https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=175573#p175573 Accessing the optics ...

I have the movie Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) which is too big to fit on a single disc, consequently, I have two .mkv files that make up the entire movie. I do most of my movie watching via Plex. Plex has a feature that allows for a movie to be split across multiple files. ( https://support....

Others have suggested something similar, wanting to be able to resume making a backup of a disc. https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=156956#p156956

The program's author, Mike, has even talked about such a feature. I don't know when or if it'll ship.

One thing we can all agree on is living in the Windows PC & Android universe is night & day different than living in the Apple universe. :) The last time I used Windows in anger was in the Windows XP era. It drove me crazy, to the point where I was constantly cursing under my breath whenever...

I have two of those OWC enclosures. They're pretty good pieces of kit.

How is the drive powered? Only via USB?

What that error implies is the computer asked the optical drive to read a spot on the disc and then it waited for the drive to return the data. It never did and eventually the computer timed out waiting for it.

Do you get the same error with several different blu-ray discs?

Do you have a different drive you can try? Since it is a DVD, just about any drive will work, even an old Apple SuperDrive if you've got one collecting dust in a closet.

I wonder since it is a manufacture on demand disc if it has DVD encryption at all?

Go to bu40n 1.00 Where can I download the 1.00 firmware? I am having the same issue as the original author but I can't seem to find the 1.00 firmware. All in one firmware pack only has the 1.03MK firmware for the BU40N. Also sorry for necroing this post but I figured it was better than creating a b...

In other threads on this forum I've seen people talk about taking photos of their display as a way to compare things. They set up a camera on a tripod and lock in the photo settings in a completely manual mode (focus, exposure, speed, etc.) so the camera takes photos with the exact same settings. Th...

Errors like this Error 'Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERROR' occurred while reading '/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB' at offset '65536' usually mean the optical drive was unable to correctly read a spot on the disc. DVD players generally try to ignore read errors and hope the visual/audio glit...

What happens if you power cycle the drive? By that I mean completely remove both the power plug and the USB data cable for 20 or 30 seconds, then connected it again and power it up?

In my experience, the LG based drives occasionally get confused and need to be 'rebooted'.
