does one need to have Java installed
Posted: Fri Feb 02, 2024 3:33 am
Hey there.
I just wondered, whether on needs OpenJDK (or JRE) installed for MakeMKV (respectively makemkvcon) do defeat all evilness?
Using it on Linux, I was already able to backup some BDs/UHDs with NO Java installed ... and still seemed to work.
There is however some config setting where on can specify the path for Java.
So would it be needed by MakeMKV to get around things like BD+/BD-J ... or is it rather even bad, cause spyware in the BD-J code may run?
Thanks,
Jemima.
