Has Makemkv got any better when ripping TV series

[Blyth]

I haven't done a TV show for ages it was always painfully slow to get the files in the right order, has Makemkv got any better at this.

For what it's worth: Rip to folder or ISO and then use the disc menu.

Will try it that way thanks, but could you tell me how it's any different from doing it straight from disc?

Don't click the big drive icon but use the second icon in the top row and backup to folder instead of MKV.

Sorry I don't think you understood what I meant, I know how to do that but why do it that way in the first place how does it make it easier to identify the right episode order?

Because it rips to folder with menu to select episodes.

I got you now that would be better so you aren't ripping blind in a way. Thanks

Additionally, I've found that when making MKVs from discs, the playlists are sometimes read out of order (presumably something to do with how the disc is structured?), but when making MKVs from a (decrypted) backup, the playlists are always read in numerical order. I do still cross-check the episodes from the menu with the decrypted M2TS files, but I've yet to ever have an issue with episode order this way (maybe could be an issue if someone like lionsgate were maliciously numbering the playlists in the wrong order).
