Thank you I will try.

It's a read error. I think the disc must have a scratch somewhere though I can't see it. I believe recovery should be possible. Particularly if you have another mkv that was formatted the same way (such as a TV series) to use as a reference. I've seen it done with MP4.

Its pretty rough to only have ...

I have a UHD disc that rips OK for about 99% and fails with just over 1 minute to go. Before it fails I made a copy of the incomplete MKV file. Is there anyway to "repair" this file so that the 99% that ripped can be played?

OK thanks. It's unfortunate these optical formats are so error prone. But if the drive fails to read discs that it should be able to I'll just return it.

So a non pioneer drive such as LG Electronics WH16NS40 should be something I can change the firmware on and make usable?

Is there a reliable UHD drive I can buy today from Amazon in the US that can work with MakeMkv? If so, which one should I get.

To be clear, I'm not interested in a drive from a forum user. I would like to buy one from Amazon.
