Fails to open. DVD is new and clean. Have tried three different drives. Log does not say very much. Entirety of log is:

****************************************

I believe there may be a major mastering error with the disk. I am able to decrypt the disk with AnyDVD. I am then able to create an MKV using MKVtoolnix without any reported errors. However, the movie abruptly stops about two-thirds of the way through. Also, the file size for the mkv ends up being considerably less than the sum of the six VOB files that are supposed to be appended together. Appears as though the last two or three VOB's are not being appended even though MKVtoolnix does not report any errors. Thoughts?

Roll back to version 1.8.7 and give that a try. I have hit several DVD disks in the last few days that 1.8.9 has trouble with, but 1.8.7 reads just fine.

Previous versions can be found at /download/old/

Thanks for the suggestion. Using 1.8.7 worked.

This is a bug in 1.8.9 - some titles are incorrectly identified as fake. Please send IFO files for the disc that fails to open in 1.8.9 and works in 1.8.7 - /faq/item/8/catid/6
