ImgBurn believe or not is still the most complete for burning Blu-ray since it can create UDF 2.5 compliant discs. If you're not going to burn UDF 2.5 discs or discs that need to play in set-top players, then I *think* just about anything will do (although I'm not sure how layer breaks are handled f...

Right now i manually flag the appropriate sub streams as forced ... Not exactly sure what you mean, but the below will add "Forced" to the track names of tracks flagged as forced. I assume if they're not flagged or tagged in some manner then MakeMKV cannot determine it at which you'd alwa...

... watch a minute or two ... The hardcore way. I guess that info isn't on the disc for makemkv to use. There is a 'commentary' boolean in Matroska v4, but I'm not sure how much support it has in the various players. Absolutely nobody uses that. If present, it identifies as "flag_commentary&qu...

I also prefer non-SDH subtitle tracks, but if a title only has an SDH track, then that's what I use. How do you identify the SDH track? If you open the mkv file in mkvtoolnix, are you using the track name property (same place you see "Commentary by drector") or is there a boolean flag to ...

The bug still exists in v1.18.1.

Did you ever get a response on this? I finally found a reason to actually use this on CoreELEC but if I remember correctly this was that idea's death knell.

First i compile/install MakeMKV 1.18.1 from source.
Then i run 1.17.6.appImage to get firmware dump.

Appimage? You should only need the single file binary "makemkvcon" from 1.17.6, https://makemkv.com/download/old/makemk ... 7.6.tar.gz

Seemingly the last stable binary is makemkv-bin-1.17.6.tar.gz, from https://makemkv.com/download/old/ Nearly 2 years old :-/

Sadly makefs creates a .iso much larger than it needs to be (possibly minimum layer size?), however the resulting .iso is UDF 2.50 and does play in both Kodi and VLC. I'm not sure if there's an option that will change the resulting size. I'll also try to see what the .iso size is created by ImgBurn....

I don't know if the resulting .iso works, I've never tried it, but: Using these: https://github.com/Randrianasulu/makefs_termux https://github.com/Zero3K/udfct ./makefs -t udf -o loglabel="Some Volume Name",disctype=bdrom,minver=0x250,discid="Some disc ID" ./output.iso ./input_di...

is there a way to play the makemkv backup folder (or maybe an iso) on firetv AND Samsung tv... I don't have a FireTV or a Samsung TV. I do, however, use Plex. Plex uses Java's JRE now? In the past, Samsung Smart TV's didn't support the Plex app very well, some did, some didn't. But as far as I know...

Oh OK, I didn't realize I could use below 720p for Blu-ray. Is there a free quick and dirty Blu-ray menu creator, template based? Combining them would be O.K. I guess, although seek past the previous movie to the next would be a little awkward. I kind of know how to use Scenarist SD, and Scenarist B...

Could I re-author 3 DVD-9 discs into one DVD image and burn that to a 25GB Blu-ray on UDF 2.01 (or 2.5) and have a set-top Blu-ray player play it as a DVD? What really makes a DVD a DVD to a set-top player? I know the answer is "Try It" but I don't have a set-top Blu-ray player anymore. I ...

Is this out of scope for MakeMKV? Yes. Since you understand what is going on, I think you understand that it's an interpretation for the player. That said, there might be an option with mkvmerge (used by MKVToolNix), but I don't know it and that isn't MakeMKV anyhow. Sadly, none of the media player...
