not reading bluray (but on windows yes)

[kapqa]

Hello ,

have compiled latest version according to your guide for ubuntu
on devuan 6 - it seem function ok,

however, on this older drive (LG GGC-H20N) it would not detect the bluay disc
when i start the program in windows 7 it would.

could it be that the guide need some adaptation to function also good with older drive or what am i missing on linux?


thank you very much.

Hi !
Try to put the disc in the drive and wait until it shows on Linux *before* starting Makemkv. It may be a difference. If not ask again.

think there are some error involved,
had downloaded now the sdf.bin file and put into .makemkv folder,

but upon opening program , it gets deleted.

Put the following line in ~/.MakeMKV/settings.conf:

Code: Select all

sdf_Stop = "HL-DT-ST_BDDVDRW_GGC-H20N_1.01_20070918123456_K1779482558"

Thank you SOOOO much; you saved me from buying a $300 slim drive.

Mods, PIN this thread!

Oh yes, this fixed one of my old drives for me with a new fully-licensed install of MakeMKV 2.0 on Linux. Someone please pin this. You have to turn on debug logging and then go look for the SDF string to disable in the settings file, but it totally works.

proper good find this, saves binning a perfectly decent old drive... reckon it belongs in a sticky
