Re: makemkv often hangs with ripping from NAS

Thanks. I do have several 1TB and 2TB SSDs laying around. But I'm almost done with the process so maybe I won't bother. Most of the backups are complete. Right now, I'm screen sharing to my desktop Mac from my laptop, watching Tommy Boy in my family room :). I just kick off a rip and let it finish. ...

Re: makemkv often hangs with ripping from NAS

Ok, I need to make a correction.
It looks like the hangs are temporary. If I let it run long enough, it seems to eventually finish. It is a bit annoying because it takes a lot longer than it should.

makemkv often hangs with ripping from NAS

I have done a backup of a bunch of discs to my NAS. My intention was to rip titles from these backups. Sometimes I am able to. But a lot of the time, the tool hangs. I get messages saying that reads are faster that writes. I'm not surprised since my NAS is basically using RAID5 (a synology variation...

reporting makemkv bugs

Is there a way to report bugs? Does the developer read this forum?
I've had makemkv hang a few times. And, the online help and FAQ links on the website are broken.
I'd be happy to provide debug info.

Re: registration key email?

Thanks. I should have thought of that :).
Email address has changed, I think. I don't have anything from paypro. No matter, I can grab the key the other way.

registration key email?

Sorry if this has been answered before. I registered makemkv but would like to file away my key in case I need to reinstall the app or install it on another computer. For the life of me, I can't remember in what form the key came to me. I assume it was in an email but I can't find anything in my inb...

Re: Backup and Rip

Yeah, that's what I do. It would be nice for the tool to do the backup, then use the backed up data to rip selected titles. Right now I need to wait for the backup to finish before I can kick off the ripping.

Multiple "Angles" on Ratatouille

Perhaps this has been covered already, but I couldn't find mention of it so I thought I'd post about it in case it helps someone. When I open Ratatouille with makemkv, I see 3 playlists of the movie. They are all exactly the same size and runtime. But, the segment lists are different. They are label...

Re: Errors ripping Ratatouille

I tried this again and I was able to make a backup. The only thing that's changed is that I found a shorter USB cable so I'm using it now. I have seen other posts about issues with longer and/or lower quality cables, but I'd be shocked if that was my problem.

Backup and Rip

I don't think this feature exists but in case it does... I have a bunch of disks that I want to both backup and rip. It would be nice if I could open makemkv, select the title(s) I want to rip (with all the options), then click something that enabled a back up as well. Then I could let it run for se...

Re: Strange trouble ripping "Batman Rises" UHD

I re-ripped Batman Begins while streaming Dune 4K and my wife watching something on her iPad.
No issues.

Re: ripping blu-rays with multiple versions of a movie

Thanks again. I guess I was overthinking it :). All I need to do it select the mpls file that corresponds with the version I want.

Errors ripping Ratatouille

I found some 10-year-old mentions of issues but they didn't seem to relate to the problems I'm seeing. Disc plays fine in my player but I know that doesn't necessarily mean it will rip. The disc is probably quite old, in case that matters. I have the debug log but it's huge so I didn't want to inclu...
