Are you sure the Death Note disks are genuine? The US BD version is individual files per episode, with chapter breaks, and no "extra junk" spread through it.

100%, it's the Complete Series UK release as seen here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Death-Note-Com ... C47&sr=8-4

Edit: I found the thread from this thread where someone had the same issue years back.

So for Death Note i figured out a work around, i hope it can help somebody else

seems you can extract the episodes by loading the playlists at BDMV/PLAYLIST into MKVToolNix after making a backup without the encryption, the seem to be 00005.mpls - 000011.mpls on each disc are the episodes, MKVToolNix will find the video files on its own once you import the playlist it seems

doing it like so avoids the blank spots in the video and also doesn't include the video info splash screen and you get to keep the chapters

further note
Disk 4 the english is audio track is a mix of 16 and 24 bit further making it difficult to rip, i solved this issue by using BDedit to modify the playlists to point to video 0 and extracting the first secound from that

How does one do this? I'm having this issue with disc 4 and I can't even find videos on how to use BDedit let alone having clear instructions on the website.

Add "12 Monkeys" (Season 1, Disc 1) to the list.

sorry for not replying sooner, guess i missed your post,
this is definetly not beginner level stuff, so make sense that you find it difficult
i put the bluray into storage so i'm going off what i can remember here

but backup the disc to the drive, and point BDEdit to the BDMV folder of the backup and press read

you should now in the Playlist page and find the playlist with your episode, find the playlist in question (top right corner dropdown),
go to the playlist section just below, find the one that doesn't belong (i think it was 1 secound long in the beginning)

right click and press edit on the section,
we need to substitute the incorrect file with something that works, i picked video 0 so i put that into the file field, saved it, and then i could load the playlist
