I am a new member on MakeMKV and would like some help. I made the big step and decided to rip my large movie collection and go digital.
So having read the UHD guide on the forum I purchased 2 x Desktop BH16NS40 optical drives on Amazon and successfully flashed them to WH16NS60 1.02MK.
The problem is both drives give nothing but read errors even on brand new discs which I have cleaned repeatly. 5 out of 10 discs fail.
My heart is broken. Is this normal?
The drives are also dated 2019 which makes me sceptical?

Re: New BH16NS40 From Amazon
Clean the discs. This usualy resolves most read errros. Also, it is good to have 2 drives but they should really be different drives on different firmware. That way, if a disc just won't read on drive #1, drive #2 (different drive/firmware) probably will. That's the way I do it anyway...haroldg56 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 11:41 pmI am a new member on MakeMKV and would like some help.
