Making MKV with "DEBUG: code ..." complete

[chansavat]

Made some mkv from DVD that have some "DEBUG: code ..." messages (mostly 181, 224)

At the end it says "1 titles saved".

Does it means the MakeMKV have successfully made mkv from DVD ... or might there be some "imperfection" to mkvs indicated by those "DEBUG" messages

While Mike is the only one that can really say what all the debug messages mean, if MakeMKV says it saved the file, it probably is OK.

I suspect the codes are there in case a fix-up being used fails; It is a bit less verbose than saying, "found condition XXXX, applying fix-up X439, success!".

You have to post the debug messages. If you have "show AV sync issues" enabled and haven't seen any, then your file is most likely fine.

Thank you for replying, Mike. Here below are debug messages with "Show AV sync issues" enabled. Don't see any AV sync messages - so I guess I am in clear (watched the result MKV and could not detect anything wrong with it) ... lucky me I guess as the DVD has lots of scratches (guess thats probably what caused those debug messages.

That's either read errors or badly mastered disc. These errors indicate that there are junk packets in video data. They were dropped.
