Re: HK download never finishes on Mac Studio

Fixed my issue. I’ll try an remember what I ended up doing. This only applies to Sequoia and newer. Not able to test on older OS’s. Open terminal, copy & past this code into terminal, hit return, this stops Apple security software from preventing non-Apple apps from functioning in Sequoia OS &am...

Re: HK download never finishes on Mac Studio

Now that I think about it, when I do launch make MKV, I do get a warning that asks “make MKV“ would like to access files in your removable volume. I don’t see any way to make that warning go away in privacy & security settings. I’ve already set the location for MKV to write its own files as well...

Re: HK download never finishes on Mac Studio

Yes, it does, like I said I can rip Blu-rays, no issue, so MKV has full right permission. It doesn’t matter what drive I try to rip to, being these are external drives, 4K just will not allow the HK file to finish downloading. That being said, I did have one 4K disc after a long wait finish the HK d...

I have a new Mac Studio M3 Ultra, running Sequoia. I can rip 1080p blu-rays just fine, but most 4K discs time out during the HK download. It seems the drive just stops spinning at this point) I have had one 4K disc get past the HK download phase, (after a long wait.) I’m using ASUS an LG 4K drives. ...

Re: hkdata.fairuse.org

Well finally fixed my problem with MakeMKV. In the security software I use, “Armor” through Netgear, the iPhone app has an area for reporting threats and allows you to turn off Armors blocking of any site it reports as blocked. I use this area but to no avail, then after digging through the other ar...

Ripping Discs 2 or more at a time

I have a feature request, where if you are ripping more than one disc, (I rip 4 at once) it would be a great help if when opening additional instances of MakeMKV, once an MKV ripping window has opened, (and settled down) an you set the drive you would like that window to rip from, that drive remains...
