Re: Can someone get this noob going?

I bought 5 of these Pioneers for a CD loader project: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08R89FN61

Sadly for some strange reason they return all 0000's for CD sub channel data, so they don't work for the purpose I'm intending, but they do work for Blu-ray/UHD after flashing the appropriate Libre firmware.

Re: Edit MKV file

No reripping of the disc, no. Also, never remux if you don't have to. You can use mkvpropedit or with MKVToolNix GUI you can use the "Header editor" to modify values and then save the values (Ctrl+s or from top menu). This won't require remuxing so it saves in less than a second. Some thin...

Re: MakeMKV causing audio sync issues

I assume the first/last field for the file is being discarded but, why would this cause audio sync problems? The only framerate'ish like attribute of audio is the bytes per second, i.e. 2 * 44100 * 2 = 176400. If there is a correlation created by the container, then the muxer should account for this...

Debian is not Ubuntu.

No, this is part of containerization. If the contained program itself could decide to write to the root FS, then there would be no point. Effectively you're wanting to give the jail keys to the prisoner.

Re: If you're experiencing rip errors, please read here first!

Generally speaking, if MakeMKV produces output files, they're good. On error, maybe generally at best. I had a rip fail to complete 4 times, but on a 5th attempt it completed stating "Read Error". Did the 5th attempt rip all files correctly? Completion rate: 0.2, Error Free: 0. Without be...

The x86 version of Makemkv should already work, try it and let us know.

Re: Version too old but is latest

..., perhaps you are correct and I am somehow stupid. Seems possible, yes. On Linux I can't access the GUi's about screen if the version is too old because a modal form appears forcing exit. I'm not sure if that is simply a difference between platforms or if it's indicative of something. Run "...

Re: MakeMKV v1.17.8 ripping very slow with HDD based mkv's

I can't repeat this, it's working fine for me.

However, looking around here at the problems posted, I'm thinking that 1.17.8 for any platform is... not good.

...a power supply? What Billycar11 said is true, but for me it's because I use as few cheap multi-voltage adapters that I can with barrel adapters, similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CCN1QPY4 I also use C14 to C13+5-15R Y-splitters, which are pretty handy: https://www.amazon.com/g...

Re: HP BDRE BU40N Revision BW43: which firmware from the firmwarepack should i flash to?

I bought one of those USB 3.0 to Slimline SATA a couple years back on Aliexpress and it worked fine to flash 2 of them. Granted, I never tried to actually rip a UHD with it, just flash. I'd prefer the adapter d00zah linked to because you can use just about any 12v power adapter. I have several of th...

Re: Is it possible to automatically eliminate redundant forced subtitle tracks?

Without remuxing/removing files, Matroska (.mkv/.mka) has 2 main flags that are editable with mkvpropedit that enable the playback of streams: "default_track": true, "forced_track": false, If forced_track is true (--set flag-forced=1) or default_track is true (--set flag-default=...

TLDR; You're imagining it harder than it is. Put the commands to install Docker from that Docker page into a script named "install_docker.bash" then copy it to your NAS and execute it. scp install_docker.bash root@omv.local:/root ssh root@omv.local chmod +x *.bash sudo ./*_debian.bash Dock...

Re: What are you all using to create blu ray menus?

You say it like it's simple, for some people they might have a NAS but have no clue how to use Docker, and opt for something easier that you can just install. I don't understand why they haven't made a installer I think they would get far more users. There is a unofficial installer made by the the ...
