Re: Unable to rip fantastic4

Then there should be dialogue about why the disc failed, like the absence of a key for decription and you need to post all of that. However, if the messages don’t make sense I wouldn’t rule out giving the disc a good clean and giving it another try.

Re: Unable to rip fantastic4

I’m not exactly young either. Processing a disc in MakeMkv basically has two stages. First stage is you clicking the disc icon upon which a dialogue box will be opened showing MakeMkv accessing the disc, and checking whether the disc can be read and whether it has a decryption key. If the disc passe...

Re: The Phonecian Scheme

As I don’t have a cloud storage account (by choice) I cannot do this.
However, the key dab.cfg has come through before the MakeMkv key so I have ripped successfully.

Some discs will fail in a LG drive but will work in a ...

Re: 4.3 to widscreen

Aspect ratio is something that I sometimes struggle with. I edited a TV programme this morning that presented itself as 4:3 on my editor but using a different program to playback in order to check the output it displayed as 16:9. I had to adjust the editor settings to correct this. MakeMKV just rips...

Re: Twisters UK 4k dump

Thanks for that. I'm not in a great hurry to watch these films so I'll wait a few days and try again. I will download the file though so that I'm ready to deploy and give it a go.

Re: DVD loses last half of chapters

Have you tried just copying the disc contents onto your PC? If it does copy and isn't encrypted maybe you will be able to extract meaningful files through other means.

Re: VERBATIM Ultra HD 4K - Will this work?

If you research other threads you will see that there is a question mark against this drive. There is statistical evidence that this drive has a high failure rate compared to others and for that reason is no longer available through key sellers represented on this site. I bought this drive before th...

Kodi 21

I started my Nvidia Shield Pro on Saturday morning and Kodi had updated to Kodi 21 (I don’t download beta versions so this is the official release). My uncompressed files with Dolby Vision (courtesy of MakeMkv) now display the “Dolby Vision” indication on my LG tv, something it hadn’t done before. I...
