Not sure what the problem is but when it comes to flashing and Linux you do _NOT_ want a version of "makemkvcon" higher than 1.17.6 (https://makemkv.com/download/old/makemkv-bin-1.17.6.tar.gz). I don't know if that will help, but 1.17.6 is what you should be using. There's a long standing ...

You can use "ddrescue" or if you're not computer savvy and it's just a DVD you could use Padus Discjuggler (~20yrs old) which will fill missing sectors with null bytes (eg. \0). Of course as long as you can mount it you can run anything you want over the file system to attempt recovery. Li...

Scripting in BASH would be the easiest if that's all you want. Take a couple hours and read this 1 page and that's all you need: https://linuxconfig.org/bash-scripting-tutorial "makemkvcon" (not makemkv) is the program you'll use (makemkvcon is what the GUI "MakeMKV" uses).

?? Are you saying that the disc isn't physically grabbed by the pickup? If so pop the lid off any internal 5.25 drive and push it in, remove the tray if you have to. There's also plenty of USB top loaders. If it does grab it and spin but the filesystem isn't recognized then it's the hardware or disc...

It's a regular disc so if it doesn't play it's either the disc or your hardware. Back in circa 2000 these were common in children's software and public libraries hated them because they were confusing to remove from their cases and several would go as "unreturned" as the librarian would th...

The problem with a large buffer is that then you have to wait a long time after the reading is done... I'm not advocating anything about the slow disk message but if the optical drive keeps vying against the destination volume then you're putting needless wear on your optical drive. Also, OOM race ...

surely, everyone wil lhave some way Apparently not. If the drive slows down and does not speed up again, then I can see wanting a larger buffer, but that doesn't change the point of the message. However, you need to prove that the drive slows down and never speeds backup to ever warrant any buffer ...

- How do you know the drive isn't fast enough to write to unless you try to write to it? - If the data is already being written as fast as possible, what performance changes are possible? Increasing buffer size won't speed up your rips, so maybe you should request an option so that the message can b...

Have you tried adding "--privileged" (privileged: true under makemkv: for compose) just to see if it works at all? If you run it privileged and it still doesn't work, but it does work on the host, then the most likely cause is that it isn't actually mounted at sr0, it may actually be at sr...

Change framerate from 24 to 23.967

I thought a PGS stream was independent of the video framerate. The vanilla delay option in MKVToolNix didn't work? I used it once on a Chinese kids cartoon and it worked (at least for a 20min cartoon).

... looks like a cube model. Post a link to a picture of it. tldr; essentially either learn a little or this doesn't happen for you. I don't think you understand 2 things. 1. "reverse" engineering one of these models is probably not the correct term since it was probably not engineered to...

Personally I don't want an .iso and I'm annoyed that DVD backups automatically create them. :) I'm hesitant to rip DVDs because of this :-/. I have a little 3 or 4 line script that can rip and extract them, but I still don't like it because you still need that intermediate .iso file :-/. FYI, 7z ca...

TLDR; if you've assembled a 3D printer and can do the most basic "Arduino programmimg" the conversion can be had for about $60usd and 6hrs time. To convert it to command and control you need to swap out the stepper or servo controller and add a driver. For both servo and stepper motors you...

Are you wanting to ask a question that you're not asking? I'm crossing my fingers you have a better way A better way of what? You haven't defined the criteria you use to identify. Do you want to know the channel count, language, codec type or ...? Are you Ai? Juxtaposing re-ripping with mkvtoolnix a...

You're SOL unless a newer Kodi fixes it _AND_ you backport Kodi, although you might be able to find a backport. Personally I can't tell the difference between P7 and P8, they literally look identical to me. For that reason I'm looking to leave the AM6B+ behind. Sadly so far I haven't seen a great re...
