Option --noscan ignored?

[RonJohn]

Hi,

I told makemkvcon not to scan, and only to dump track 0. Then it goes and scans for optical devices and then the whole BD disk. Am I doing it wrong or is "--noscan" just not implemented?

Code: Select all

$ makemkvcon mkv --decrypt --noscan --progress=-same disc:0 0 .

Any update on this? I'm having the same problem. Attempting to run `makemkvcon info` on a directory dumped with `makemkvcon backup` while some other process is using any connected optical drive. adding `--progress=-same` shows that makemkvcon is indeed scanning drives and hanging on that step.

This is as of version 1.14.5.

This issue is still current. --noscan does not stop makemkvcon from scanning all drives. Same when using a device, an iso, or backup directory.
Can it please be addressed?

Thanks.

I got it to work, just appended the --noscan switch to the end of the command.

Sadly, that does not appear to resolve the issue, regardless of the position of the --noscan parameter:

I bought a key already, but I am willing to pay to get this bug addressed. Being able to force single drive mode for makemkvcon executions would be even better as io_SingleDrive = "1" appears to not be functional from the command line, as well.
