first 14 mins of movie missing from MKV file
Posted: Fri Jan 16, 2026 2:58 am
I was ripping my polar express DVD and for some reason the file is not starting from the beginning of the movie. The script says "cells 1-10 were removed from title start" so I'm assuming that's where the issue may be coming but I have no idea for sure and I'm trying to figure out how to get those 14 mins to show up.
