Re: Is it possible to automatically eliminate redundant forced subtitle tracks?
If you just want to toggle default streams, mkvpropedit is the way to go, especially when filesizes become large since the operation takes ~0.5 seconds (although there is a deeper/longer scan for malformed .mkv's, but that's out of scope here). You know, I think I found mkvpropedit years ago but co...

Re: Version too old but is latest
..., perhaps you are correct and I am somehow stupid. Seems possible, yes. I do not claim to be perfect, but I proved it was not me committing a mistake before you bothered responding. Which makes your exact choice of response here intentionally rude & insulting, especially considering you also...

Re: Version too old but is latest
No bug. Sure, you really downloaded v1.17.8? In my Ghostery the dowload failed. So I temporarly installed Firefox (v132.0.1), did NOT import anything, initialized the downloaded makeMKV WITH THIS BRANDNEW FIREFOX -> worked. Then installed the new MakeMKV. PS: Control the available disk-space, also....

Re: destination directory - custom option broken?
1st, what OS & which version of MakeMKV are you using? I tested this on Win10 using MakeMKV 1.17.8 (the newest version). It functioned *exactly* as described in the post you linked. The 2 possibilities I can think of presently are: 1- You are using a different version of MakeMKV or on a differen...

Re: Help with Phantom Menace
1st, you repeatedly say 6.1 or "DTS-HD MA 6.1". Are you certain you mean 6.1, not 7.1? I ask because all I ever saw or heard of or read of was either 5.1 or 7.1, not 6.1. If it is 6.1... That would be the 1st occurrence I ever saw/heard of it, so would be very unusual in itself and could b...

Re: MakeMKV v1.17.8 ripping very slow with HDD based mkv's
You are using MakeMKV to rip an MKV to an MKV? Are you doing this to alter the contents? Remove audio or subtitle streams? I never tried using MakeMKV to rip an MKV to an MKV so never experienced your issue. While I cannot presently use MakeMKV until my issue is solved, I can possibly test after my ...

Re: Is it possible to automatically eliminate redundant forced subtitle tracks?
There are 2 different types of subtitles people commonly call "forced", so clarification would help. 1- Subtitles which are displayed only to translate otherwise untranslated dialogue or on-screen text. I would prefer a better term than forced, but this is what "forced subtitles"...

Re: Multiple identical copies of same discs failing in exact same spot
Now this I definitely cannot claim to be all-knowing in or even an expert, so take this as speculation. You mentioned buying them on eBay, AND being sent replacements for the problem discs. Are you certain they are legitimate, official discs and not bad bootlegs? Reasoning: If they were official rel...

Re: ripping Dolby Atmos audio to 11.1
Oh, and I forgot to clarify what you said. You have 11 speakers + 1 subwoofer, but 4 of your speakers are in the ceiling? That is not an 11.1 sound system, that is actually 7.1.4. The 1st # refers to the traditional thinking of speakers & surround being on your horizontal plane. Think: at the sa...

Re: ripping Dolby Atmos audio to 11.1
I am not aware of discrete channel encoding above 7.1 (or I think technically 7.1.4), but I never claim to be all-knowing. However, I read some years ago regarding the newer audio processing of Dolby Atmos & DTS:X. If you are not familiar with them or how they function, I suggest reading on them...

Re: Version too old but is latest
Guessing you read the title but skipped the content because, as you said, the "usual" fix? I specifically mentioned that. "I read the post about the issues with 1.17.7 and discs in the drives, so I tried removing the discs" Sadly, as I said in my initial post, it changed nothing....

Version too old but is latest
I downloaded & installed MakeMKV on 10/16, registered the free license, then used it briefly and it worked well. I saw then the free license was valid until (I think) 10/31, so I was not surprised when I opened MakeMKV on 11/2 and it complained of the license. I went to the forum, got the new li...
