MakeMKV won't start under Ubuntu 23.10
Posted: Mon Jan 01, 2024 5:20 am
Edit -- Solved. Not sure what I did specifically, but I reinstalled and uninstalled the snap. I did a bunch of reckless sudo rm-ing, and then reinstalled. Seems to be working fine again.
I've been using MakeMVK (registered if that's different) for years with no problems. This week, my system updated to Ubuntu 23.10. Now MakeMKV won't open. I get,
"Application failed to initialize
NO_ANSWER_FROM_MAKEMKVCON"
If I try to run from the command line, I get ---
"/usr/bin/makemkvcon: error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.58: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
Long term install follows "make" instructions from this forum. Today had tried SNAP as well. Same thing.
I found online someone thinking this was caused by antivirus software. As far as I can remember, there is none on this machine.
Thanks for any suggestions.
