Re: Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:READ OF SCRAMBLED SECTOR WITHOUT AUTHENTICATION' occurred

This seems to happen occasionally with DVDs (vs blu ray discs). I'm guessing it essentially has to do with some code paths in makemkv that try to read from the disc before the drive has been unlocked.

Re: request for ui enhancements

Language already exists - just specify the language in the preferences. Though be aware that if you've got something that doesn't have any english audio tracks then you can end up with an audio-less mkv file.

Re: Fringe: Season 1

The handling of season 1 doesn't appear to have improved at all in 1.17.6.

Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives

I have the impression that the BDR-XS07U (firmware 1.01) is more prone to getting stuck running a save in a slow[er] mode (compared to the BDR-XD08U and BDR-X13U that I also have experience with). E.g., if you take too long to pick out what to save from the disc and the drive spins down to a slower ...

Re: Makemkv rips fine, but ripped file has glitches?

This is a long shot, but it might be worth running a memory test (in my case I booted memtest86 off a usb thumb drive). In the last 12-15 months I've seen some inconsistencies in what makemkv produces. E.g., sometimes if I try to re-save a disc and compare it to one I made a few months ago the file ...

Re: Batman The Complete Animated Series - No dialogue on first episode

For what it's worth, the disc I have has: Label: Batman_Animated_Series_D1 Timestamp: 2018-09-11 17:46:41 I see a few more short titles than in the OP's image, but that may be because I have the minimum title length setting set to 50 seconds. Of the first two episode titles (the 3.1GB ones) the firs...

Re: Cyberlink PowerDVD with a Flashed Pioneer

For me both the LG drives and the Pioneer drives came with Cyberlink PowerDVD, but LG’s version was newer (more like less old) so that’s what I’ve kept installed. It works with my LGs (flashed) but has had issues with my Pioneers (unflashed) so I’ve just stuck to using it with the LGs—I basically as...

Re: Batman The Complete Animated Series - No dialogue on first episode

I thought also hit this issue (this board has at least 3 threads about it), but there's 14 episodes in the list and only 13 episodes on the disc. The first of the 14 is "On Leather Wings" with the commentary, and another has it without the commentary (probably the 2nd of the 14 since it ha...

Re: Windows going to sleep during ripping

I had wondered if makemkv was implemented to call "PowerSetRequest(h, PowerRequestSystemRequired)" while is was processing a disc, and this thread seems to suggest 1) the answer is no, or 2) Microsoft has further increased/changed what's needed for a process to keep the system awake. Previ...

Re: The Abyss 4K

I didn't have any problems with The Abyss, True Lies, or Aliens, but I can see how some of them can be problematic because the 4K disc is stacked on top of the bonus disc and that invites circular scratches. As for Target, for me it's almost always the case that reporting a movie as defective result...

Re: Crash (blue screen of death) as rip starts

I'm not sure any of that information helps since none of it is directly related to the BSOD. One part talks about makemkv shutting down (though unclear if it's an intended or crashed shutdown), and the other is about the DellWAL service having a problem. DellWAL is probably something that Dell insta...

Re: Lessons learned from backing up hundreds of discs

After doing over 1000 titles I have a few thoughts to add. 1) Some folks mention they favor Pioneers (vs LG) to get more accurate reads, but I’ll still not sure if this is a valid concern for blurays given the m2ts hashes. 2) Be careful with foreign language titles. If you soecify a default language...

Are those Zombieland versions supported now? I want to buy it.
My Zombieland still doesn’t work (dump file was previously submitted).
