Disk Errors / ISO rip / Volume Key Unknown

Hey Y'all!

So I have a damaged Bluray (X-Files S08 D4) that I've ripped replacing the errors with '0's using ISOBuster. I'm confused if this is the best method, but moving on..When I load the 'fixed' ISO into MakeMKV I get the message that the volume key is unknown.

So, two questions: Is this the best way to recover a damaged disk? Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you! Obviously I failed at finding this post on my own. For anyone in the future --

1. Use ISOBuster to 'Extract' the contents of the damaged disk to a folder
2. Open MakeMKV and choose to 'Backup' the disk to a different folder. Once the file "discatt.dat" is created stop the backup
3. Copy the file "discatt.dat" to the BDMV folder of the extracted contents
4. Open MakeMKV and click "File > Open File". Open the "discatt.dat" file in the BDMV folder.

Profit!

Thanks for the help :o
