I'll start off by saying this is probably due to Adult Swim's historically abysmal DVD authoring, because I've had the same results with 2 copies now.

Basically, on this disc, there are 7 episodes and a bunch of extras. Don't care about the extras, just the episodes. What happens is with makemkv, it reads the disc, no errors, but it only detects 4 titles, 3 of the episodes and one of the extras. These read and rip just fine, but makemkv doesn't see the other 4 titles at all. In handbrake, it sees all the titles, but seemingly can't read them. But the disc does play back fine on a DVD player or in VLC. I've tried multiple drives with the same results in each case. Logs are below, not sure how to troubleshoot this further without sending a disk to Mike

Oh, and as an aside, there's still a long-standing bug where makemkvcon on linux refuses to backup a disc because it thinks an empty folder isn't empty:

$ makemkvcon backup disc:0 ./athfs4d1/
MakeMKV v1.17.8 linux(x64-release) started
Using LibreDrive mode (v01.0 id=E9BA8ECC61EF)
Backing up disc into folder "file://./athfs4d1/"

As an addendum, the linux

Code: Select all

dvdbackup

tool was able to handle this disc. Detects all 7 titles in the titleset with

Code: Select all

dvdbackup -i /dev/sr0 -I

Rips them with

Code: Select all

for i in {1..7}; do mkdir ep0$i; dvdbackup -i /dev/sr0 -o ./ep0$i -t $i;done

was able to get them into a state that VLC can play with

Code: Select all

for i in {1..7}; do mkdir ep0$i; dvdauthor -t -o ./ep0$i ep0$i/Aqua\ Teen\ Hunger\ Force\ Vol4/VIDEO_TS/*.VOB; done

then into a format makemkv could work with via

Code: Select all

export VIDEO_FORMAT=ntsc; for i in {1..7}; do cd ep0$i/VIDEO_TS/; dvdauthor -o ../ -T; cd ../..; done

Bit of a circuitous path to get there, but now makemkv can open each episode (treating each one as an individual disc), and create a perfect unconverted copy.

Addendum, not quite perfect, at some point during this process the subtitles get messed up they come out in image format, they're all in black, and they're all but impossible to read. Will update if I fix it.

One more note, disc 2 is similarly jacked, only 3 episodes out of 6 are detected by makemkv. Grabbing the others via the same process works.
