Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)

Anyone knows which is the correct .mpls for this movie?

Thanks

Are you saying that MakeMKV did not suggest which title was the FPL_MainPlaylist, or that its suggestion was incorrect?

[UsedKondomXL]

yeah it did not suggest the correct .mpls at all.

If you have the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed, MakeMKV should put up a message about using it whenever you insert a disk with fake playlist "protection".

If it can't figure out which playlist is correct, let Mike know about it - see http://makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=14330

I have Java installed and I don't recall seeing this popup before. Can you explain how it's supposed to work, and is there a way for me to force it to show me the main title?

There's a "sticky" message in this section that describes it: http://makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16791

For "Blu-Ray + Digital Copy" version, UPC code 774212113284, I couldn't find playlist 00667.

Running MakeMKV ripping directly from the disc did not produce the right playlist (got scenes out of order, copy warning, etc.)

Here's what finally worked for me:

1) Installed Java JRE 8 u341
2) Set MakeMKV Preferences/Video/Minimum Title Length to 1100 seconds
3) Made decrypted backup of disc using MakeMKV
3) Loaded disc backup using MakeMKV
4) MakeMKV identified title with playlist 00972.mpls, 16 chapters, duration 2:17:03, as FPL_MainFeature
5) Ripped title with playlist 00972.mpls; all segments of the resulting .mkv file were in correct order
6) Segment map: 501,502,512,508,515,510,511,504,503,507,513,514,509
