Website Down

[wthit56]

I get Error 525 for any web page (apart from the forum). It's something to do with Cloudfront apparently.

This means no one can download or buy or register a copy. And as my software is currently saying it's out of date, it wants me to use the site to download a new version etc.--which I cannot do. So right now, the software is just bricked as well.

A new key was posted yesterday, so that can be used to bring the beta back up. It hasn't changed in months, feature-wise, just needs to have the new key.

Thanks—where can I find that?

On the other hand… It seems to me the site runner has been sitting with a broken website for a while now. At best they’re unaware—which is why I made this post. Of course, I couldn’t go to the site and find a support contact to use because right now there is no website. If you know why the site hasn’t been fixed or why it’s neglected, or how to properly contact the runner so they know their site is down, let me know.

Is the application actually being maintained?

as far as I'm aware Makemkv is being maintained, I was on version 1.18.2 and I installed it on my laptop sometime in 2025 and they are now on version 1.18.4 which I installed today, new beta keys are also still being released
(keep in mind that I have no idea when mike released version 1.18.4)

if you plan on using Makemkv a lot I would suggest buying a copy when the main site comes back online, it is worth it


keep in mind that Makemkv is run by only one guy so stuff is a bit slow and unpredictable as to when it gets fixed
