Dirty Dancing 20th Anniv - won't recognize. DVDfab works fine

I've ripped hundreds of my discs and never come across this problem. I have a paid registration and I'm on 1.17.3. I am used to the usual SCSI errors indicating damaged media and such. What I have is the BD for "Dirty Dancing 20th anniversary edition". This disc and only this disc locks up MakeMKV before I can even click the button to begin opening the disc. Here is what I do know:
  • Disc looks pristine. I have tried cleaning it with a microfiber cloth. I realize this doesn't always mean anything.
  • Disc plays fine on my Panasonic UBP-820 and Yamaha BD-A1060 blu ray players
  • When MakeMKV tries to open the disc it does not fail at the point where you click the "open disc" button. It fails before it gets to that.
  • MakeMKV doesn't appear to hard lock up - but it doesn't progress. It doesn't ever get to the open disc button.
  • Windows shows the volume name
  • MakeMKV won't ever get past the scanning your drives step if the disc is in the drive before starting MakeMKV
  • There isn't a lot of grinding and seeking. Just a quick, light seek and then no disc activity
  • Nothing shows in the log area because the failure is BEFORE you get to the open disc button - so no scsi errors I can report
  • The CPU is working hard in MakeMKV for both the GUI and the console app. An aside - I always run MakeMKV without the service - I change my shortcut to run MakeMKV as an administrator
  • If you close MakeMKV then you have to go to the task manager and close the console task because it is hung
  • Disc will not open on MakeMKV on three separate computers running Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2019.
  • Disc will not open in MakeMKV with four separate drives: LG WH16NS60, Asus BW-16D1HT, Pioneer BDR-XD05, and a Buffalo BRXL-PC6U2B
  • Symptoms are absolutely identical for every drive and every computer and windows version I have tried.
  • Rebooting computers doesn't help
  • All other discs continue to open fine
  • DVDfab 12 did an export to MKV fine. No read errors
  • DVDfab 12 did an export to ISO just fine, and MakeMKV worked fine on the ISO

I'm obviously set with my rip - but if there is anything I can do to resolve a bug for the community let me know.
