I have the full DVD set for the series Grimm and have used MakeMKV to rip them to .mkv files, then used Handbrake to convert them to .mp4 files. This was a while back, so I'm not sure if I could have changed settings or upgraded versions of either MakeMKV or Handbrake. These discs are Region one, so...

It is a little bit hard to decipher especially since so much of Apple's dump is in hexadecimal. However, the dump indicates the kernel is panicking; this is what's causing the reboot. What you say about this sounds reasonable - while I've done a lot of programming in the past and still play around,...

I'm using an M2 Mac Mini, running Ventura 13.5.2. I just set this Mac up about 10 days ago, downloading the latest in a lot of software. My MakeMKV version is 1.17.4 [darwin(arm64-release] and the drive I have problems with is an Asus USB BD burner [model number here]. Overall, I'm having issues wit...

I just tried hitting the Tab key (four times) until you get back to the left pane and then using the spacebar, which in most other programs, should check and uncheck the line, but it doesn't seem to work in MakeMKV. Okay. A bit kludgy, but it works and not too hard to deal with. Usually the files t...

When I have a list of files and can select and unselect them, and I can rename them, there's a text box for typing in a new file name or editing the current name for the selected file on the disc. Is there any hot key so, while a file is selected, and I'm using the keyboard to edit the name, I can s...

Read this article as well: ISP deploys fiber service with a wrinkle—the users themselves own each network Wow! That's a great system! If I had seen that back before May of 2021, I would have seriously rethought my plans and looked into that instead of Starlink. (But I also know the article is very ...

Meant to include this with the other post... That's a great post on Reddit about your efforts to install Starlink. Despite how many times you said it, people didn't seem to understand that 100 foot tall trees are a real obstruction. Oh - so you've read the comments! Yeah, a lot of people tend to com...

I've had things like that happen to me before. Sometimes when the drive encounters a disc it fails to read properly, it sorta loses its mind, including sometimes being unwilling to eject. I have to power cycle the drive for it to behave normally again. I wondered about that - I think I can disprove...

Took some time for me to think about this and track down the issue. I use PIA (Private Internet Access) on my study computer, but not on my workshop computer. I easily forget about it, since it's basically set it up and forget about it. I found when I used several proxy locations, I could not get to...

As of 11:25 Central time on 11/29, I'm able to download 1.17.2 for both Mac and Windows through that page, so it may be caching issues. Interesting. I cleared my cache and tried again in Chrome and still got the error. Tried on the same computer in Firefox, which I would never have used for this. (...

I see a few recent reports about the MakeMKV site being down. I go to the front page and it's up, but I cannot download MakeMKV for the Mac (I'm hoping for an update, since I'm having problems with 1.17.2 [darwin(x64-release].) When I go to the main page, I get this, which looks normal, or mostly no...

More information! I think this tells us something, but I'm not sure what. I got up and went into my study this morning and the drive was still making that noise. I thought, "It's STILL ripping that one BD?!?" But then when I hit a key and the screeensaver stopped, I saw that MakeMKV had s...

The previously posted link to speed control would tell you how to set the drive to a slower read mode. That's about as 'cautious' as it gets I suppose. I missed it the first time - don't know why. It's right there. I'll check that out. I wouldn't mind a slower speed if it means it doesn't have to k...

I don't know the details of how MakeMKV works, but I guess that MakeMKV is talking to the driver for the optical drive (or the right corner of the IO framework on macOS) and asking the drive to read bytes off the disc that MakeMKV then assembles into the output file. As such, I don't think you'll s...

Note : I've found more information I think is critical on this. It's several posts down, in the post that starts with " More Information " in bold. I'm having problems using MakeMKV almost every time I try to rip a BD. I'm now using an Asus CD/DVD/BD RW drive bt this has been going on wit...
