I have a Saved AACS dump file that I can share. Will updating the software to 1.18.3 be the fix?

Regular blu-rays that use the latest version of encryption, AACS v82, have to be handled similar to 4K UHDs and slightly differently than regular blu-rays with older versions of encryption.

MakeMKV supports two different disc decryption mechanisms. The built-in mechanism is called hashed keys and it works with all dumps from MakeMKV. When there is not a key for you disc and MakeMKV produces a dump, email that dump to svq@makemkv.com. Eventually a hashed key will be produced and MakeMKV will automatically download it as needed.

The other source for decryption keys is the public keyDB. MakeMKV does not install or update these keys automatically. The first post in the Public KeyDB Disc Submissions thread includes a template and instructions on how to submit dumps for inclusion in the keyDB. It also has links to where the keyDB can be downloaded, utilities to help keep it updated, and where to put the file so MakeMKV can use it.

These two ways to decrypt discs can be used together. If you can submit a dump to the keyDB you can also email it to svq@makemkv.com. Accidental duplicates emailed to MakeMKV aren't a big deal but duplicates submitted to the keyDB should be avoided if possible.
