Yes libavcodec is part of the ffmpeg library. I ran this command

ls /usr/lib/libavcodec*

and received this output

/usr/lib/libavcodec.so.55 /usr/lib/libavcodec.so.55.39.101

I also type ffmpeg and got this

VortexBox uses version 2.1.8 of ffmpeg. Is this a good version? What version is recommended?

Also dbmservers is saying this used to work with an older version of MakeMKV. We have not changed the version of ffmpeg in a long time so this should not have caused a problem.

I am using MakeMKV from the command line under Linux. It works great but I get this error

"ILLEGAL REQUEST:MEDIA REGION CODE IS MISMATCHED TO LOGICAL UNIT REGION'

on some discs. I read the fix for this is to disable auto and use cellwalk mode.

This feature would be very useful. Any news on this?

Thanks a lot for taking feature requests. It seems like a lot of people really like this one. Any idea when this will be implemented?

Good to know. MakeMKV is already the best command line DVD ripper by far this feature would really put it over the top. It's important that MakeMKV is smart about the way it selects subs and audio tracks. I can already select the longest track so selecting tracks is not that important to me but ...

I would like MakeMKV to be totally automated and rip just main movie from a DVD with no user interaction. Fortunately MakeMKV already does this! I have no problems using the command line version to rip just the movie. I set the minimum track length to 3600 seconds. Any track that is over 1 hour long ...
