I've installed mkvtoolnix, so now I can go back and strip out all of the language and subtitle tracks I don't need/want. It's pretty simple to use, at least to remove audio and subtitle tracks, which is all I've done so far. But I have a question about subtitles. For subtitles all I want is English,...

Ok, I think I'm figuring out the subtitles. It looks like (at least with the Plex client on my PC) in order to see the english subtitles when a foreign language is being spoken you have to select subtitles in the Plex client at the time of playback. I went into the (PLEX) settings and set languages ...

So then technically, if I only want to hear and see english subtitles (when a foreign language is spoken) then I really only need to select english audio and subtitles. That's kind of what I figured originally, but I think I think I may be having issues. I'll need to look closer at what I have. Than...

Thanks!! I want 1:1 bit copies, both audio and video, so no reencoding or compression. Looks like I need to get mkvtoolnix.

Thank you again!!

Thank you!! And how do you "toss out" language tracks you don't want after the .mkv has already been created?

I'm about two weeks in ripping my 4K Blu Ray collection. I'm putting my movies on a Synology NAS, which is where my Plex Media Server is running. My primary Plex playback client is a 2019 nVidia Shield Pro. All I have been using is makeMKV ripping to .mkv files and placing them on my NAS. I'm not us...

So to close the loop on this then. To ensure you get all foreign language subtitles to display on an english language movie when subtitles are turned on it is simplest/safest to just select all subtitles? Theoretically only the "forced" subtitles are necessary for this, but better safe tha...

DVDCompare.net can sometimes help one sort out what's on a disc.

Wow, Thanks for that link. That is super helpful!!

Based off the given information you provided it’s safe to assume those two large files are the film. The larger being the Director’s Cut. That's kind of what I guessed. I went through all of the files, just scanning through them with JRiver Media Center. Many of the smaller files were special featu...

In my searches, I've seen refrences to an F9 or Fast 9 thread, but I'm unable to find it. Please post a link if it addresses my question. I just ripped F&F 9 and it resulted in a total of 46 separate .mkv files. They are just numbered 00-45, with no indication of what each is. I went through the...

Model Code: KIAA = LG Drive Model Code: KIAB = Pioneer Drive I find that model code a little strange as you would think the Pioneer would be A as its an earlier version. Would be good if someone can post a model code of an older version that at least 12 months old. For what it is worth, I have a Pi...

I have a nubie question. In what I've read it says that if fw is 2023 or later on an otherwise compatible Pioneer drive, it can't be crossflashed or downgraded to an older compatible fw. But then at the bottom of your first post I saw this. The bolded text says you can reflash a drive that has new f...
