MakeMKV Crashes M1 Macs

Post by FlimpFlomp »

For whatever reason mods removed my previous post, but reposting so others can be informed.

MakeMKV's integration with VLC causes a full system crash, and event sent my computer into a boot loop for a bit. I am unsure if this is a result of compatibility with M1 Macs, but after hours of fiddling around I had no luck preventing the crash. From what I can tell, it is related to libaacs in some way.

Unfortunately the MakeMKV community is quite dead (I'm not entirely sure if the software is even being actively developed anymore), so I don't expect the problem to be resolved. If anyone manages to find a solution (or information related to the problem) please share here!

You actually knocked your post to invisibility by modifying it. It's still there, so I'm going to lock this one as a duplicate.

Also, considering there was a new version released this month, I can't see why you think it is "no longer in development".
