Are hash keys getting updated?

#1 Post by Werribee » Sat Oct 09, 2021 10:29 am

Silly me didn't do enough research and bought a disk drive that does not support LibreDrive, before starting my ripping journey. The disk drive works just fine for standard blu-rays but not UHD

I'm just wounding if hash keys are still be generated? I have a number of UHD that I want to RIP but cant. I have kept all the dump files and can email them in if needed.


Thanks :-)

Hash keys are generated frequently as new 4k disks appear. But that doesn't help when the hardware refuses to read the disk.

Keys should not be needed for non-UHD disks, though.

What does MakeMKV say about your drive?

After doing some more reading the UHD drive I bought doesn't actually support UHD fully.

I have returned that one and ordered one of the MakeMKV has confirmed supports UHD.
