Auto-Select and Select All (mac) does not select MVC tracks or images

#1 Post by mattpr » Tue Nov 18, 2025 7:18 pm

MakeMKV 1.18.2. macOS Mojave (yes I know)

3D blurays (same behaviour on a bunch so does not seem to be disc specific).

If I right click on title or track and say select-all makeMKV does not select MVC tracks or album art images.
I have to manually expand EVERY track and manually select them all.

If I forget to do this I have to re-rip the disc. Super annoying.

Maybe I can change the auto-select config in advanced to work around this (currently I haven't touched it so it is default).
...but I would at least expect right-click select all to actually select all tracks regardless of auto-select config.

Is the problem between my chair and keyboard or is this a known won't-fix issue? I figure this has been reported before, but searching has yielded no answers.

Yes, a simple edit will do it. In the "Default selection rule" look for the part that says -sel:mvcvideo
Change the minus to a plus so it it reads as +sel:mvcvideo
With that, the MVC track will be auto-selected by default.

It depends on which line you right-clicked first.
Try right-clicking on the "Chapters" grouping and do Select All. Or likewise with the main "Video" track.
Those top-level items should work with Select All in my experience.

Thanks for your reply. Never got a reply notification, so just seeing this now.

I can confirm that right-click on DISC or TITLE and select all does NOT work.
Expanding EACH title and right-click on either CHAPTERS or VIDEO and then select all DOES work for selecting MVC.
Personally I find this annoying because it means I need to expand every title and select all on chapter/video in each in order to ensure I have all tracks. I would expect a DISC or TITLE level select-all to select all (or the option should not be present in the right click menu at those levels).

The +sel:mvcvideo change in advanced config seems to work around this issue for me. Thanks.
