At least they responded, wasn't expecting that.

15.4 Release Candidate, still doesn't work, not that I was expecting it to.

This is in the developer notes for macOS 15.4:

libxml2
Deprecations
The custom allocation API for libxml2 is deprecated starting in macOS Sequoia 15.4, iOS 18.4, tvOS 18.4, visionOS 2.4, and tvOS 18.4. If this API is not used, no changes are required. If this API is currently used, make ...

So for those of us who paid for the product that no longer works, we're just SOL?

Fantastic.


Not necessarily.

Beta versions of operating systems break apps from time to time. This is why beta OSs should not be installed on people's daily drivers.

As far as the developer(s) of MakeMKV is ...

FYI: As a temporary get around, I'm running a Windows 11 Virtual machine using Parallels. Makemkv for Windows works fine in that environment. Just a few extra steps. Definitely prefer to run it native on the mac.

Devs please respond

Unfortunately, Beta 2 doesn't correct the issue.


Damn. I was just going to suggest everyone hang on a half hour while I updated.

Or because of the grey area of the application, they won't even bother?


The issue is really that we don't have any real detail about the issue. The developers would have to identify the source of the problem (i.e., where ...

Thanks for posting this... Very thoughtful. Sadly, a lot of Apple's release notes tend to be a "here's SOME of the stuff POs remembered to add to the release notes". We've gotten bitten a few time at work by Apple "forgetting" to point something out that they changed.

Unfortunately, this will ...

Same issue here, shame that it's such a hassle to downgrade back to 15.3.


Just in general, to everyone in this thread - Betas of any software should only be used for testing. If the system/software/usage is important then it probably shouldn't have a beta OS or beta software on it.
