mkv file freezes during playback

Post by JinIbiza » Sat Mar 20, 2010 9:34 am

I use a mac mini and have no problem ripping Blu Ray movies to a HDD. However, when I play back the mkv file using my WDTV, almost always the file will freeze in several places. If I then restart the WDTV media player and fast forward PAST the point that it froze, then the file will play perfectly until the next freeze. It always freezes at the same frame in a particular movie, and can be after 15 - 20 mins. Sometimes it will freeze in 10 nor more places. I have tried different HDDs but always the same problem. I have other mkv files not made with Make MKV and they work perfectly with the same setup.

I have OSX 10.6.2, a 2GHz Core Duo, with 4GB SDRAM. I ensure that no other program is running when I use Make MKV. I am still in the trial period of the program.
This has happened on almost every movie I rip. Approx 10 so far.
Can anyone help? Does anyone else have this problem? :?

This is the log from the last attempt, which froze after 25 mins:

Re: mkv file freezes during playback

Well for a start I would use the latest version 1.5.1 which could resolve your issue or try some other software like Plex or MPlayer Extended for instance. If none of these exhibit the same freezing then I'd be more inclined to suggest it's the playback software your using not MakeMKV.

Cheers

Hi Thanks for the prompt reply.
I downloaded v1.5.2, but this time the file froze after about 20 seconds!
I did a rip with AnyDVD HD and it worked OK. I really like MakeMKV and would like to sort this out. As I said before, I don't have any problems playing MKV files that I have obtained elsewhere on the same system.

Can you please post the log from 1.5.2 . You mentioned AnyDVD, if you only need decrypted M2TS, did you try MakeMKV decrypted backup and did it also fail?

Sorry about the delay in replying - I've been travelling and it takes a while to discover if I have a problem with a file - I have to watch the movie :wink:
Anyway, I ripped a couple of Blu rays with no problems, but I have tried Surrogates 4 times and it has always stuck in the first few seconds. Log attached.
To answer your question: I have not tried the back up mode yet, because I really appreciate the smaller file size of mkv.

Thanks for your help.

The log for surrogates shows no problems at all. Is your computer powerful enough to play HD video?

I know the log shows no problems, but the file sticks almost immediately on starting. I am plying on a WD TV media player and have played many other similar files successfully.
