Anna (2019) - Which Playlist?

[RickInHouston]

MakeMKV is choosing a file as the main feature (181 is the mpls). It doesn't run in sequence correctly near the beginning when the modelling agent goes into the Russian market and discovers Anna. This sequence is out of place.

I'll try 757 and see if that sequence looks correct. Yes, 757 looks more correct in that sequence. I have not watched the entire movie.

MakeMKV may want to take note.

Will do.

Any ideas for the RB rental? The Java selected mpls in MakeMKV has an error when Anna and her boyfriend return to their apartment after the car wreck. Shows Anna talking to KGB agent over her friend's body then shows the agent shooting the boyfriend later.

Which chapter # was out of place?

This time MKV chose Name: Anna (English) which appeared to be correct, start of chapter by chapter, for the RB version.

Once again BDInfo was wrong, it chose the only 17 chapter playlist placed at the top:

I'll hold off watching backup until I can verify correct playlist.

The FPL_MainFeature version showed up as 00181.mpls, which definitely is the wrong version. I tried watching 00757.mpls on my laptop at the same time I watched the movie. 00757 is 100% correct on every scene in the movie. I hope this helps.

Does anyone know how to directly contact "Mike" the admin in order to let him know about this? I was told to do this the last time I found the correct version of a movie when there was an error; however, I never found out how to contact "Mike" the admin.

Since linking indirectly/directly hasn't worked, lets try the exact quote from "Mike" the admin...

"We need the data to validate that this functionality indeed works and test the new functionality. If you have such discs (especially newly-released ones!), and are willing to help please do the following:

- Make a full disc backup with MakeMKV, encrypted or decrypted, doesn't matter. This step might be skipped, but please note that as part of protection these discs usually contain a large number of fake files. Using MakeMKV for backup will remove these.

- Delete (or move to some other location) two folders from the backup - STREAM and BDSVM. Alternatively delete all M2TS, SSIF and SVM files.

- Compress the folder with the backup with any archiver of your choice and share the produced file on the dropbox.com or any other file sharing service of your choice.

- Send a link to support@makemkv.com . If you know the correct playlist number, please note it as well, but this is not really important."

Historically, it's unlikely you will receive a personal response unless he needs additional info.

hi,

I'll try to help, How do I use MakeMKV to make the backup file?

Once the disc is inserted/scanned, select 'File' > 'Backup', or the 'Backup' button.

Tried this title and the film makes no sense (I've not watched it before) - the first scene was Anna getting picked up to be a model, then she meets another Russian while at a modelling party and shoots him for no reason. Next scene she's back in Russia being abused by her boyfriend. I suspect there are different UK versions. Although DVDFab also said title 474, and the segment map matches what's posted here.
I bought the recent 4K version (although am ripping the regular HD copy that comes with it).

[Fortissimo]

Any word on this for the past 30 days? Netflix's 757 is definitely not the correct playlist.

[swampdaddy]

Any word on a conformed PlayList for Anna?

Thanks!

My UHD disc says no known decryption keys

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the community of people here who take the time to come and post their findings and help each other figure out which track is the right one.

The multitude of playlist options is interesting.

I suspect the Java code in the BDMV\JAR folder is used to select the playlist.

There are a total of 432 playlists. The largest of these are 33.9GB.

Each 33.9GB playlist has 16 chapters in 15 stream files.

They all seem to start with segment 512 and end with segment 514.

That leaves 13 files in between to sequence from the 43 other stream files.

From a quick sampling, it looks like the relevant playlists only include streams in the 5xx range. There are only 15 of these.

I'm guessing the correct sequence starts with 512,511,513,502,... That leaves 10 more to sequence before ending with 514.

Could be the last playlist 00986.mpls, but there are others that match.

Who will solve the mystery?

Just wanted to update since I spent a few hours on this last night. 757 is indeed 100% the correct playlist for the Netflix disc. I watched it side by side with what played on my purchased copy.
