I had an older version of 1.18 for Windows on my PC, but it could not decipher the bluray disc. I updated to 1.18.3 and MakeMKV can now back it up.

Did you do anything special? I updated to 1.18.3 and I'm getting, "The volume key is unknown for this disk - video cant be decrypted Failed to Open Disk". TIA for any info that can help.

I don't have this disc, but since it is a new release it might need a hashed key for MakeMKV to be able to rip it.

Can you post the full lof of MakeMKV trying to rip the disc?

Did it say it made a dump file? If so, what is the full name of the file?

Did it say anything about trying to download HKs?

Attaching files to the forum usually doesn't work. Email dump files to svq@makemkv.com.

Thank you. I did so yesterday after continuing to do more "research" on the forum.

For anyone that has copied this title to .MKV, do you know which subtitle to select so only the Predators spoken voice is displayed in English. I copied with the first English (with forced) selected but this one displays descriptive words and when English is being spoken. Played the disc on the Oppo UDP-203 and found one English subtitle that only displayed when the Predators spoke.
