Hi guys and girls, I would like to try out Makemkv for some bluray rips to my home media centre. I kinda ran it though https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/eaf ... 9bbe92dfba and gota hit. Should i be worried or just a false positive?

This occurs occasionally. This particular antivirus program isn't one I've heard of, but there are dozens of new ones over the years.

I would suggest you choose the antivirus programs you trust, and submit the file to them to check. Most of the reputable companies have an address for that.

While I doubt that the report is true, I also treat such reports as serious, and causes for checking.

Cool well I'll do a bit of testing if anything pops up will let you know.
