Hi Mike et al,

I've noticed something that seemed to start a few versions back... I'm using 1.65 on Windows 7 x64.

Imagine this use case:

1. I insert a DVD or BD ito the drive and and start MakeMKV. I get it going and it's in the middle of generating the MKV.

2. I insert another DVD/BD into the other optical drive on the same PC.

3. Here's the problem: whatever disc I insert in step 2 above doesn't get registered by the system. I can't play it with DVD software or whatever...

If I insert both discs, THEN start up MakeMKV, I haven't noticed it blocking the second disc. Also, if a disc is already registered in drive 2, putting a disc in drive 1 and running MakeMKV on it seems harmless.

Could you look into the situation and if possible resolve the blocking of other drives when MakeMKV is operating on a disc in one drive per the reported order of operations above?

Thanks Mike!

Marc

Yes, looks like a bug - thanks for reporting.

@ Mike: Thanks! I'll be curious to hear if this is indeed a bug or something unique to me.

@Setarip_Old: Actually, if I do what you suggest I run into the problem. Basically, what I find is that while MakeMKV is processing, Windows is locked out from registering any new discs I insert. If I pre-insert them before MakeMKV starts processing, I have no problem... BUT: It never occured to me I could watch the same disc MakeMKV is chewing on! I'll have to try it sometime!
