MakeMKV won’t read any discs — infinite scanning loop
Posted: Tue Oct 07, 2025 3:14 am
Hey everyone,
I’m stuck — MakeMKV just sits at “Scanning disc…” forever, doesn’t show any titles, and never finishes. I can play the discs fine in VLC, the drive reads them, and I’ve even tried different discs, cables, and USB ports with no luck.
What debug logs or settings should I check? Has anyone experienced this loop behavior and found a fix (firmware, permissions, sg module, etc.)?
