Re: The Abyss 4K

Successfully ripped "The Abyss" 4k, FINALLY! So what "did it" for you in the end? Replacement disks? A new drive? Sacrificing a ripe mango to Cthulhu...? So, in the beginning ( days after release ), I purchased two copies. the first copy, from target, failed to rip, went through...

Re: The Abyss 4K

Successfully ripped "The Abyss" 4k, FINALLY! Purchased copy from Amazon, used an LG WH16NS60 fw 1.03 on MakeMKV version 1.17.6 (latest) Did that copy of The Abyss have the stacked discs or the additional "page" inside the blu-ray case with each disc attached individually? Actual...

Re: The Abyss 4K

Recently, I was notified that Target's web site got some back in stock. I ordered one, and it arrived today. This one has a case with a middle tier inside, with each disc attached individually to its own side - No disc stacking. And I was able to successfully rip both the theatrical and extended ve...

Re: The Abyss 4K

We all want the 4k version, right? Well, maybe some rip it, some don't.

As for me, I am perfectly happy to have the 1920 x 1080 (HD) in hand. Rips great, both versions... Upscales beautifully

Re: The Abyss 4K

ok, so here is the deal. I have now made an attempt to return my second copy of the abyss, purchased at walmart, as defective - from my perspective it is defective right? Before I tell you the punchline, as we all know, it is normal behavior for DVD/Blu-Ray/UHD returns, exchange only, correct? Houst...

Re: The Abyss 4K

Here is attempt #2 - walmart abyss

I will update this post, wish me luck...

verdict! walmart disc, same result as other disc. no rip!

Whomever speculated the issue lies within the disc player not understanding 3-layer discs, is most likely correct.

I will be getting a new ripper. just not now.

Re: The Abyss 4K

typically two discs, one over the other, is generally ok, but so many have complained.

Re: The Abyss 4K

I purchased mine from Target. Same here, circular scratches. But, look at it this way, the HD version rips fine, and whilst there is the expectation that the 4k UHD should work flawlessly as well, I (like millions of others) have been waiting years to get this onto blu-ray let alone 4k, and now it's...

Re: The Abyss 4K

Hi all - 4k UHD of "The Abyss" being ripped as I write this speak.

THE ABYSS-FPL_MainFeature_t31

I think the THE ABYSS-FPL_MainFeature_t32 is the extended.

Please let me know if I am wrong...

DV MEL :)

Update: Disc is getting stuck on stupid... ICK :x

Re: The Abyss 4K

The Blu-Ray looks fantastic. no problem ripping. I am using this option until 4K UHD issue gets solved :)

Re: MakeMKV 1.15.4

It'd be really cool if MakeMKV could convert DV FEL to DV MEL as the rip was happening...
