Thanks for the suggestion! In the past trying to get other players working didn't pan out much but since I don't like using PowerDVD I gave VLC another try and that was fairly easy to get it working this time around. Now I should be able to remote into my ripping machine and not worry about HDCP get...

I was suspecting that but didn't know how LibreDrive works so that answers a bunch of other questions I had coming :D The strange thing is this only started happening recently so maybe it wasn't enforced previously. The drive is plugged into the front of my computer so this is no biggie. Hopefully m...

What I mean is this always worked before and recently after Makemkv opens the disc the drive no longer can play back. So if I just boot up and open the disc in PowerDVD no problem, it's the additional step of opening the disc with Makemkv that is for whatever reason preventing PowerDVD from playing ...

Vantec enclosures are working well for me. I've had to replace probably 4 LGs and 2 ASUS UHD capable drives already so I would look for a different model if it eventually dies (sounds like it to me). I'm using eight of these: https://www.amazon.com/Vantec-NST-536S3-BK-NexStar-External-Enclosure/dp/B...

I have a machine with a mix of 4 LG and ASUS Blu ray drives and one Pioneer BDR-XD07-UHD USB external drive. Makemkv works fine on all the drives but recently I'm noticing on the external Pioneer drive I cannot play back video from that drive after Makemkv opens it. Basically I'm trying to play the ...

I have killed quite a few LG and ASUS BD drives over the years so it's not just you. Lasers wearing down is pretty common in optical media, ask anyone that owned the original Playstation :D I switched to the Pioneer BDR-212UBK that I managed to buy a bunch off of Amazon around August last year. It s...

I've had pretty good luck with the Vantec NST-536S3-BK NexStar DX external chassis. I bought eight of them off Amazon and connected them all to the same machine so I can rip eight discs at once connected to a NuC. I'm using Pioneer BDR-212UBK in these but my older Vantec chassis had a LG WH16NS40 in...

My new copy of the black cover (not the steal book) UHD Zombieland is currently ripping in MakeMKV. I'm guessing the encryption was prohibitively expensive to implement or Sony got tired of people returning their copies (they are about to get one more ).

Thank-you for checking. After reading up on those numbers, it sounds like unless the title gets remastered, those spine numbers stay the same.

Since my copy is just collecting dust I'll give Amazon a go and see if I finally strike gold I'll report back on how that goes.

I just received my copy of Zombieland UHD from Amazon US - standard UHD+BD, NOT the Steelbook or double feature. Decrypts and rips fine. MakeMKV indicated AACS 2.1 Can you double check the spine on the case near the bottom and check if something other than 54815 is printed on your copy. I'm not sur...

Thank-you Mike, I didn't realize that's what that setting is for. I wish I asked about this years ago since I think that setting has been around for a long time

I'll second that. I'm often ripping 5-7 movies at the same time and being able to pause during the scan phase would be handy when I open multiple instances of makemkv too fast and they end up fighting over the same drive. So when that happens it would be great if I can pause some of them let the oth...

That order must be decoupled from the drive letters then since explorer and PowerDVD list them alphabetically by drive letter. I'm going to probably need to reverse the SATA cabled and swap their drive letters to get everything matched up.

Has anything else been released that uses AACS 2.1? Also has anyone purchased Zombieland UHD lately and didn't run into AACS 2.1 encryption? (wondering if you can even get a copy of this anymore that can be ripped by makemkv)

I've made some changes to my computer including changing the windows drive order. Everything changed to use the same ordering except makemkv. So does anyone know how to modify the drive order in the pulldown box where you choose which drive to rip from? I figured the order was set locally in the mak...
