makemkcon Set DVD open mode

[knuxyl]

The documentation and manpages for MakeMKV seem to indicate all functionality from the GUI is taken from the command line application, but I cannot find how to set the DVD open mode. I looked through the source code but it's just sending bits to the server, there is no logic in it whatsoever. How can I set the DVD open mode to CellFull with makemkvcon?

When you set it to CellTrim with the GUI on macOS, settings.conf is updated to include this:

Code: Select all

dvd_SPRemoveMethod = "2"

So my guess is you need to update the settings to whatever mode you want as appropriate for your platform and then start makemkvcon.

Thank you for sharing! I see I have settings.conf in ~/.MakeMKV/, but does makemkvcon actually use the settings file?

Edit
This github suggests it actually does, so that solves my problem! thanks a lot!
