Actually after doing calculations 12W more (estimated for my use case, where 18W more is the max) for N100 equates to about 32 euro per year more in electricity cost where I live. That makes a difference as over few years CM5 cost of hardware goes to zero vs more power hungry N100 and as I don't rea...

... CM5 has less power consumption and less heat .... It's worth noting to readers that what makes that statement true is 5 watts in power, however if you choose active cooling the same fans/coolers can be used with a N100 at the same effective cooling measurement. For saving 5W with a RPI5 over a ...

I ordered some weeks ago CM5/16gb. Once it arrives I will let you guys know how it handles two copies of MakeMKV. It can likely handle 128+ instances of makemkv as the bottleneck is USB. I've ripped 5 UHD discs simultaneously on a N100 CPU, but I did breakout the PCIe M.2 x4 to a USB 3.0 controller...

I like what I hear but do you have any real life experience of it?

ARM CPU in RPi is not too great with single thread performance and that is what gets hammered with MakeMKV ripping. So to achieve max speed of BD drive you need certain processing power to handle IO etc.

Hi All, As per title of the thread: Will running MakeMKV as docker container on RPi 5 slow down ripping speed / time using single or two BD drives? Currently I am ripping using two BD drives in parallel on my 6700k and also on my Synology via docker container and both take about the same time when t...

Would it be possible to add variable that uses file name as name for the output file name? So as I have ripped some discs to ISO before and now I would like to have them in MKV I use these ISOs as a source for MakeMKV but as most don/t correctly populate name of the output file I would like to use n...

Ok, thank you for confirming as my disc is spotless so it is not dirt on it that causes problems.

I wonder if we can flag it to MakeMKV team to get it resolved somehow.

Thanks will look into it.

Will try cleaning it and report back. Any specific ways to do it or just gentle wipe with a dry lint free cloth?

It is brand new and spotless, fresh from the packaging.

Hi All, I am wondering if there is anything that can be done. I have two (different) drives here and neither plays the ball with the disc (one is BU40N and other is something else, cannot remember. Both have libra FW BU40N is 1.3 and other is 1.2). Is it matter of luck with finding drive that would ...

Have you maybe figured it out with MakeMKV backup option and your UHD 3000?

Definitely get a BU40N

Thanks. That is what I did earlier on today. Currently waiting for the delivery.

Hopefully it is the answer I am looking for

Thanks for your input.

Thanks for your reply. I saw them but they refer to faulty drives and have really nothing to do with my goal and situation. My LG is working fine but some discs it will not stomach. I am looking for 2nd drive to cover those. My 1st drive is not failing. Hope this explanation will attract your know-h...
