If you wanna use your phone as a mobile hotspot or a VPN provider to bypass your ISP's restrictions, you don't have to change anything crazy, all you need to do is tell Windows to send that one IP address to the gateway you're connected to. The IP you care about is `185.84.108.20`. You need to add a...

Thanks! I ended up just running the makemkv container via Docker. It worked on my Raspberry Pis. The speed is great, but to get everything working properly, I have 1 Pi per drive. Even in TrueNAS, I was unsuccessful at consistently getting multiple drives connected without issues. In the case of thi...

Ok, its here.

Never mind, I found it, and built it. Thanks a million for the hard work.

Does a Raspberry Pi work with Docker containers for that automated rip or are you taking about the Snap package?

Glad I found this thread! I've been looking for a way to network attach my drives with a MakeMKV interface.

This is the way!

One RPi per drive (connected to a fileshare on my NAS), and I never have to turn on my PC to rip discs again!

Google Fiber can't do it, but T-Mobile can.

I've been seeing this error lately: "Automatic HK downloading is disabled or failed." After I see it, the drive starts acting sporadically until I pull out the disc. That happened twice until the 3rd run which I've logged below: Using LibreDrive mode (v06.3 id=[REDACTED]) Using direct disc...

Dark mode exists in Linux.

In the TrueCharts version on TrueNAS, the Docker container lets you enable dark mode with an environment variable.

Even the progress bars look different when you do it. Might be that version of the Linux GUI which changes to dark mode though.

Hi! I've been ripping DVDs for the kids, but I often spend hours renaming everything for Plex. I just bought a ton of Blu-ray movies, and after ripping them all, it's gonna be weeks of every-night renaming to get them Plex-ready. It's really bad for special features considering the box doesn't alway...

A PC restart fixed most of my issues. But I'm not sure that actually did anything. I'm wondering if the drives got hot and that warped the discs enough to make reading problematic. I ripped 70 discs in the last few days, and it appears to be the drives I have manufactured in September 2022 that have...

I have 4 of these drives and flashed the to the `HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.02-NM00100-211810291936.bin` firmware version (the one for LG 5.25" drives). This worked fine for most discs, but certain UHD discs seem to have trouble; showing CDB errors: "Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:INVA...

How can you tell if you have a triple-layer disc?

I have 4 of the same drive type: ASUS BW-16D1X-U. Is it possible I need to buy another model? I bought these drives within the last year.

Also wasn't able to rip Forrest Gump Ultra HD Blu-ray: Error 'OS error - The specified request is not a valid operation for the target device' occurred while reading '\Device\CdRom1' at offset '19674034176' Error 'OS error - The specified request is not a valid operation for the target device' occur...

Just noticed this same issue with the Ultra HD Blu-ray of Grease. The Blu-ray seems to be reading fine. Error 'OS error - The specified request is not a valid operation for the target device' occurred while reading '\Device\CdRom2' at offset '7798910976' Error 'OS error - The specified request is no...

I got a bunch of errors just now like this when reading the "Hook" Ultra HD Blu-ray disc. It read the titles just fine though. Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:INVALID FIELD IN CDB' occurred while reading '/BDMV/STREAM/00001.m2ts' at offset '8749314048' Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUE...

I found out this was related to the auto-ripper in the Docker image. So long as that's enabled, it kills the ability to read from Blu-Ray drives even when using DVD discs.

DVD drives work fine though. Not sure why that's an issue.
