Re: BU40N>MakeMKV>Integration>VLC Blank.

Have you enabled HDR in your settings? In your Display settings should be a toggle to enable HDR for your connected monitor. This toggle should show up if your GPU is HDR capable. It is, it is a RTX 3060TIFE. But I cannot find anything that says HDR. https://i.ibb.co/0wkSwWn/Screenshot-at-2025-08-2...

It isn't a TAR until you remove the gzip encoding that makes it smaller. Kind of like zip, but it isn't.

Improperly compressed 1.17.7 archives

That thread is probably relevant.
This is with makemkv-oss-1.18.1.tar.gz & makemkv-bin-1.18.1.tar.gz .
