"Evaluation period has expired" -> Just bought license!!!

Post by bouzafr »

$ makemkvcon --minlength=3600 mkv disc:0 all br/
MakeMKV v1.9.2 linux(x64-release) started
Using direct disc access mode
Evaluation period has expired, shareware functionality unavailable.
Evaluation period has expired. Please purchase an activation key if you've found this application useful. You may still use all free functionality without any restrictions.
Failed to open disc

Then I went to the site and bought a license...

added

app_Key = "<my key>"

Ran again into the same issue.

How can this be solved?

All good.

The file is ~/.MakeMKV/settings.conf

for some reason I kept updating ~/.MakeMKV/update.conf whihc is the wrong file

Just a note (which caught me out): app_Key is case sensitive - ensure that you have a capital "K"... :(
