The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

Multi Episode DVD's

I've tried using MakeMKV for DVD's with more than one episode. In one case it showed 3 episodes when there was 4. In others it listed more than what was on the DVD. I looked at the time length and that does help. What would be nice is a preview capability so you can review each episode to verify tha...

My point is that compression does not have to be lossy, I used the audio comparison of Flac and APE as examples that are absolutely bit perfect and they can reduce the file size by 40-50%. You can reproduce the original CD from a Flac or APE file. I am only sug...

Re: Converting DVD files to MKV

A batch mode would be great where I could select numerous folders for conversion. With that the MKV file should be placed in the same directory as the I...
