How Do I Set the Location of the Output File?

Post by Len_Jacobson »

I am a new user of MakeMKV. I've been using it for almost a week. It is great!

Today, I installed a new drive on my Windows 10 computer. It's my G:\drive. Suddenly, MakeMKV is writing its output files to the new G:\ drive instead of the my C:\ drive.

How do I set the desired location for the output files?

Preferences->Video, and make selections and fill in the box.

I recommend "SemiAuto", and then set the base directory that you want to save files to. My server has a share I use for "raw" files, drive Z:, so the default destination is "Z:". SemiAuto will create file names and directories according to the name information found on the disk, or you can modify them prior to starting the rip.

I also suggest you read the MakeMKV FAQ topic for general information.
