obfuscated 4K Ultra HD

Post by forseer » Sat Feb 13, 2021 7:28 pm

Hi,

JRE worked great to find the correct version of Midway 2019. However, it didn't work for 4K Ultra HD.

Is there a way to find the correct 4K Ultra HD version?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.
RF

Correction JRE DID NOT work for finding obfuscated blu-ray version.

Any suggestions?

Hi Forseer, I used the method here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16251 to play the 4K disc in VLC using MakeMKV as a decryptor and listen with ProcMon. The resulting playlist for the 4K UHD Blu Ray disc I got was 00504.mpls with the filename Midway_t90.mkv which contains the parenthetical segment map (502, 501, 503, 500, 506, 507, 505). Interestingly enough, constructing the map this way with parentheses makes Segment Count = 1, not 7 as expected. There were three playlists out of 170+ that had a parenthetical segment map. This may be a visual cue for other Lionsgate titles to watch out for - even though the correct map isn't totally unique in that regard, it may be possible to quickly whittle the list down to a handful of possibilities.

The segment map for the 1080p HD Blu Ray in the 4K Combo Pack was found by kfreeb in another thread:

Just finished checking the Blu-ray that came with the 4K version and this is the correct play list for the Blu-ray that was included with the 4K disc.
UPC code for the 4K cover art: UPC 31398 31416

Title information
Name: Midway
Source file name: 00539.mpls
Duration: 2:18:24
Chapters count: 16

Segment map: 504,510,501,507,502,505,506,509,503,508

UPDATE: Have sent to support, an image of the Midway disc so that they can figure out the Java scripting issue with this Blu-ray Disc that comes with the 4K UHD disc.
