For some reason my drive and Makemkv won't open the following 4K discs.
Sleepaway camp 2 (shout)
Creepshow (shout)
Tenebrae (synapse)
The Fog (shout)
When I load the disc, VLC usually automatically opens up first, but with these titles nothing happens and my drive just keeps spinning. They play on my 4K player with no issue.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Re: Trouble Opening Discs
Have you tried downloading the latest KEYDB.cfg file, copying it into MakeMKV's data directory (i.e. where MakeMKV also writes its TGZ dump files) and restarting MakeMKV?
Re: Trouble Opening Discs
I apologize for my ignorance, I'm not super tech savy. Are there instructions to try this?
The other odd thing is, I tried another copy of The Fog and that one worked without issue. Could be something with disc authoring?
Re: Trouble Opening Discs
You mean this?
The latest KEYDB.cfg file is inside the ZIP file that you get from that download link.
Re: Trouble Opening Discs
Re: Trouble Opening Discs
Probably more like "drag and drop" the KEYDB.cfg file into your MakeMKV folder.
If MakeMKV has created any TGZ files for any of these disks then maybe upload these files into (say) OneDrive or Google Drive, and then reply here with public download links?
Re: Trouble Opening Discs
I'll give it a try. Thanks for your help.
