A new svq file was created so that Chronicle could be ripped from the Bluray since the disc contains a new version of bd+. I can rip the Bluray with no errors or problems. The problem is during playback. I will watch the movie, and then during specific points, the picture will glitch and turn black. The audio will continue to play, but the picture is stopped.

This occurs at many locations throughout the movie. I've tried re-ripping multiple times. But I can't get a good rip. This is the first movie I have had this problem. I've ripped and played more than 60 movies with zero issues.

I think there is something wrong with the way makemkv is ripping the video but I'm not sure how to fix this.

I use the latest version of plex on my Mac mini for playback. Any ideas?

Alright, I figured out my problem. If I turn off the vdadecoder which uses hardware acceleration to playback the h264 encoding, it works with no issues. At least I know this isn't a mkv ripping issue. Now I just need to figure out why the hardware acceleration is broken for this one movie.

Open the file up in mediaInfo and see if there is anything weird in the video stream, compare it to a few other files and check for anything unique to Chronicle.
