A question - do the episodes share a common open/close? I ask because I have a similar series, where the open/close are common for a dozen or so episodes, and are NOT included in the individual episode files in the rip. The next partial season changed open/close, then there was a third set of open/c...

Personally, I use mkvtoolnix for splitting files if I'm not going to encode them, but I use handbrake if I want them smaller. If disks don't have a lot of swapping around, handbrake is fine. But, what you've described is best handled with mkvtoolnix to break out the subtitle tracks, as well as splic...

Yes. It's just the way the pieces are integrated into the disk, with everything part of a "single file"... although sometimes it's a collection of files. My copy of Riselmine is a real mess, which was easier to simply rip it as one very long episode, then use handbrake to break it into sep...

CDs and DVDs use the red laser on drives that have both. Bluray drives also have a separate "blue" laser. You can have a drive that has just the red laser (older DVD-only drives), but almost all Bluray drives have both.

Did you send the file to svq@makemkv.com so that Mike sees it, too?

Not with MakeMKV. The subtitle tracks are interspersed with the video and audio tracks, so you're going to have to scan the whole disk to extract JUST the subtitle tracks anyway.

Speed of rip depends on many factors. A large one is, "Where are you reading on the disk?" At the beginning of a disk, there is less data per rotation, but it increases as you get further out. The disk will only spin so fast (and that can vary with the available power), so it will read fas...

What are you having issue with? The key, posted in the message MakeMKV is free while in beta , was updated at the beginning of this month, and is valid until the end of November 2025. The program was just updated to version 1.18.2. If you have an issue, it would seem that you're trying to update som...

Insufficient information.

Did you try searching for "pioneer 43889", and looking at the dozens of messages about that drive already on the board?

Your log file is not attached or included.

However, there are a number of programs out there that will skip over errors, often with just a log entry at best.

Knowing the name of the disk would help others know that a dump was submitted. And, if you upload the file to a sharing site, like Google or similar, you can send the link to the people at keydb by posting it here, and they can also come up with an update.

dvd and BD encodings are different; with BDs, they assume the player is smart enough to simply not show the content if the language is "wrong". MakeMKV doesn't care.

So, yes, you can read all regions on BDs. I've done US, Japanese, and European without having to do anything special.

Besides telling MakeMKV you want to?

Preferences, you'll find a setting for minimum time. It can be 1 second, or much larger.

Sorry. Firefox forces HTTPS. Thank for the tipp

It CAN be told to not do that. In fact, my Linux machine starts with http for everything, and switches to https when that fails.

Did you email the file to svq@makemkv.com ? Otherwise, it will not be added to MakeMKV's configuration. Attaching the file (which didn't work; is it bigger than 4.0mb?) is for the keydb people. Most people upload those to a public storage site (google is popular) and provide a link in the message, r...
