Re: Easy fix for damaged discs

I've always used Windex for moderately dirty of scratched disks.

What it comes to something really bad: I use Brasso. It's a brass polish and it works wonders. I've used it for years as it was suggested on avsforums when comparing quality of blank DVD disks years back.

Re: Request: Blu-Ray: no ugly list of complicated title file

Generally, if all you want is the feature, the only title you should select would the biggest in size. That is the feature and is generally the first one listed. (The other titles are things like trailers, bonus material, etc. You can tell by size.) So, you shouldn't have to make 4 MKVs and put them...

Romansh,

That worked!

Thanks again,

Re: Embedded Subtitle Problem?

So, English subtitle track #2 did show the translation in English; however, it also showed English subtitles throughout the film. Those translated subtitles appeared exactly as did the English subtitles in bright yellow rather than the large yellowish-green seen in the DVD screenshot. I'll give trac...

Hi!

Have you tried SELECTING (Put a checkmark) "Forced subtitles" from within MakeMKV?
It's a DVD so I'm not seeing any "forced" option. However, I do see two English tracks. I'll select the second and give it a go! I'll let you know in ~15 min.

Thanks!

Re: Embedded Subtitle Problem?

Love MakeMKV and can't wait to purchase Why wait? http://makemkv.com/buy/ The problem you're seeing is because WMP has awful support for MKV files. Is there a reason you have to use it? There's most of choices for playback software in Windows. Hey crowfax, Thanks for responding! (As for buying, I'm...

Embedded Subtitle Problem?

I don't generally tick to add subtitles to my MKVs unless they are in a foreign language; however, sometimes movies have (for lack of a better term) embedded subtitles for...
