Some fragments missing in Alita: Battle Angel

[RogerJ79]

Hi. I bought the scandinavian release of Alita: Battle Angel, and when I rip it/convert it, with both MakeMKV and CloneBD, the beginning and end is missing from the converted file. CloneBD says "incorrect number of packets in 61.clpi". In CloneBD I can see that all languages except english has the complete movie. I tried to rip it with Xreveal and MakeMKV(with Xreveal turned off/closed) with the same result. Any suggestions on how to get the complete movie in english?

Did your version come with both 4K and Blu-Ray discs? If so…
I once had a problem with the English track being “silent” during the first couple of minutes and resolved it by ripping the Blu-Ray version and grafting its English tracks onto the 4K version.
I used MKVtoolnix to blend the two rips together and untick the duplicate tracks that I didn’t need.
Check to see whether the Blu-Ray and 4K have the same length though.

Hi! I did not explaine it good enough. When I write "English", I mean the english video track. The movie has text in the beginning that is part of the video(not subtitle) and this text is in different languages. The english version/fragment of the movie exists on the disc and can be ripped by its self but not as a part of the movie. As this is a UHD movie I don't want to mix this with the 1080p disc.

OK. The English you are seeing on the movies is probably a sub-title track which is restricted to only foreign language part. Any disc player startup probably turns it on. To test this try playing the file and turning on each sub-title track in turn.
If I am right I would suggest you have three options - run the file through Handbrake and burn in that sub-title track into the video but compressed a bit, or run the file through mkvtoolnix and set the default flag on (hoping that any player you use recognises the flag) or remember to return the sub-title track on when you start playing it.
