So, in order to get around the 16 device limitation in MakeMKV, I installed AnyDVD and ImgBurn, both of which support > 16 devices. Now, I can create ISO files from all 25 devices on the computer using ImgBurn, and then convert the ISO files to MKV files using MakeMKV. As the last step, I just delet...

I use MakeMKV in command line only, but even in command line, MakeMKV can only see and utilize the first 16 drives it finds in Windows. Would really appreciate an update in a future version to support > 16 ...

Any chance MakeMKV could be updated to support more than 16 drives anytime soon?

Suggestion; support for additional drives could...
