Open files fails on HD-DVD files

[robcrobc]

I've copied an HD-DVD to the hard drive and am trying to use MakeMKV on those files but it fails.

Using "Open files" I've tried opening each of the files that MakeMKV supports (such as HVDVD_TS/HVA00001.VTI) with no success.

Is there something else I need to do?

Here's the complete error log for an attempt.

FYI- Trying to read the disc directly gets an error on one of the files (even though I can copy the file using other utilities). I tried using InfraRecorder to make an ISO of the directories/files but MakeMKV couldn't open the ISO (I don't know if I made the ISO correctly, I made a "DVD" ISO of about 27 GB I don't know if there's a free tool to make a proper HD-DVD ISO?).

Have you tried opening the original disk, rather than an ISO of it?

Yes, I have a few HD-DVDs that get read errors - and have only been able to copy the files off using other apps (even just Windows Explorer in one case) but where MakeMKV consistently gets a disc read error. I suspect it's a drive or driver issue, but I don't know.

I was hoping now that I managed to get the files on hard disc I was at the easy part.

Cheers,

In the first problematic HD-DVD I'm working with, MakeMKV can read everything except a single .EVO file - it can extract/convert all but one 'track'.

Can MakeMKV decrypt/extract a single .EVO file from hard disc?

I looked at the command line part of MakeMKV and it didn't seem to have a way to decrypt the EVO (or the entire HD-DVD directories once copied to hard disc).

Cheers,
Rob.
