I work at a cult cinema in Norway where we sometimes rip Blu Rays when screening films. We have had some problems with ripping Zone A locked films, unfortunately. From what i have read in this sub, zone locks are software based and not harware based. However, i usually have had problems with ripping Zone A Blu Rays. Make MKV won't read most of them. For example, i tried "The Neverending Story 2" and "Beyond the Black Rainbow", who were both Zone A films. None of them worked. On the other hand, i tired ripping the Criterion release of "My life as a dog", and that worked perfectly.

I need a consistent way of ripping Zone A Blu Rays when we are forced to import films from the US. Does anyone know why the films i mentioned are not rippable? Will it work if i get a ripper from the US? Or should i just buy a Zone A player and screen through HDMI?

region a discs should work fine in makemkv likly something wrong with the disc or your players posting the error log would help us help you

people like to post identical things, THEN modify them to have scam links in them.

Scammers gonna scam I guess.

And I'd appreciate it if people let me know about the now-deleted post.
