March Beta has DVD problems
Posted: Thu Apr 06, 2023 12:38 am
I was recently trying to back up some DVDs I own using the March beta. But, there was an interesting problem I ran into that could be repeated each time.
If I simply tried ripping the DVD and walked away from the computer, everything was fine.
But, if I tried using the Internet (I use Chrome) while the DVDs were ripping, the DVD would instantly stop ripping as soon as I clicked on Chrome.
What was even more interesting was that if I closed MakeMKV and closed all the Chrome browser windows, it was not possible to delete the folder that had partially been made with the DVD. The only way I could delete this partially-made folder was if I either disconnected the external USB DVD drive or restarted the computer. I kept receiving a message saying the folder was in use by another program, even though it clearly wasn't.
This hasn't happened in the past. In the past, I could use the Internet while a DVD or Blu-ray was being ripped.
I just thought I would report this in case it is some form of "bug" or "glitch" that "could" or "should" be fixed in a future MakeMKV.
