Re: VLC Player: Keystrokes for Zoom?

I'm guessing you want the image zoomed within a full screen window, but it doesn't seem to do that. Yes, that's what I want, just like when I use my Oppo 203's or Pioneer LX500's zoom functionality to magnify up to twice the original image size-AND also using the four remote buttons to center any p...

VLC Player: Keystrokes for Zoom?

As I discussed here https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=551275&sid=3c0cb5bb65518378309215d2f69886ce#p551275 , while fast/slow motion are effortlessly accessible via the [ and ] keys, using the Z key only displays that zoom mode is being accessed. But I can't zoom in or out, to any degree ...

Re: Can MakeMKV Make Most SACDs Playable on My PC's BD Drive?

As far as bulk ripping, I seriously doubt anyone has a large enough SACD collection to warrant a loader application since availability is very low. I've ripped a...

Can MakeMKV Make Most SACDs Playable on My PC's BD Drive?

I don't own only any SACDs, and hope that when I do start collecting high res versions of my favorites I will find most of them here. https://www.hdtracks.com/#/album/5df1427d0bee25c09bc163fd In any case, most forums say this is impossible and that only standalone players like the Oppo, Marantz, Pio...

Re: What software to fully read UHD Blu-ray?

I have been unsuccessful in getting JRiver Media Center to play anything on both MacOS & Windows. I tried both UHDs and BDs. Thankfully I am in the trial period. I don't know about the mac versions, but if you follow all of these simple steps from andy1249 and both Windows VLC and JRiver should...

I had clicked on that link last week but nothing happened, but today when I clicked on the other one from Andy1249 it took me where I obviously had to be. Will try this tonight.

Re: What software to fully read UHD Blu-ray?

I'll try again updating this expired trial. Maybe I'll get lucky. FINALLY!!

Re: What software to fully read UHD Blu-ray?

In theory the MakeMKV integration with JRiver and/or VLC should provide what you need. I've seen that it doesn't always work for people. But if you want to try it (you say you have it working for DVD's so this may be redundant if you've already tried this, but I want to be thorough), go into MakeMK...

Re: What software to fully read UHD Blu-ray?

Not read. You mean play. And the terminology may seem trivial but it's not. MakeMKV can read UHD's just fine. To copy them. It can't, however, play them. Thanks for clarification because after stating very plainly what I wanted I feel that I really got the runaround elsewhere on this forum about wh...

Well, it seems Billycar11 told me just over a year ago that VLC integration should work with the trial key.
How do I know if I installed this key and did so properly?

Re: Redfox Alternatives for 1080p BD Playback?

If UHD isn't required,....... It isn't; >98% of my BDs are 1080p. But as I said, I am NO coder, nor do I have any idea what VLC player configuration you're talking about. What I need to know is was my now expired makeMKV trial version fully functional, thereby allowing VLC and JRiver players to pla...

Re: Redfox Alternatives for 1080p BD Playback?

Don't you have to have the payed-for version of MakeMKV for VLC integration to work? Since I've had a paid-for license for MakeMKV for a while now I've sorta forgotten the limitations of the trial mode. Don't know if the trial was fully functional or not. I had only used it once to rip a DVD-R. I w...
