No disc load

[wessongroup]

Have been using MKV for a number of years and jus the other day I lost the ability to load a disk to "rip"

Have tried both Blu ray and non blu ray with the same results ...

Insert the disk, the drawer closes on the software application

The disk starts spinning, but, after a period of time the disk just ejects

I have a back up blu ray player and tried that .... With the same results

Usually have connected to a hub (Blu ray player) have connected directly to my USB port on my Mac mini with no change

Neither USB optical player (both MATSHITA) will load the disk if Blu ray .. just spins then eject

Not sure if this is software, or hardware

Check my latest OS updates ... Only update was Apple Remote Desktop Client on 3/15/2017

My last "rip" was on 3/18/2017 of a Blu ray disk ... Australia, with no problems

This started on 3/21/2007

Here is the software showing both players

MakeMKV v1.10.4 darwin(x86-release) started

This is the log for both players after insertion of media:

Was just able to load a non blu ray and decode to a mkv file using one player .. the other would not work

DVD+R-DL MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-898 HE13d This player will do non blu ray ... but, not blu ray

A DVD player will NOT work with Bluray, but a Bluray player USUALLY also work for DVD.

This is not an MakeMKV issue; it's a limitation of the hardware.

As for the reading BD in the BD drive, what happens if you set your system DATE to the 18th and start MakeMKV?

As for regions, MakeMKV does not "respect" the region coding on BDs, so it should not care about changing regions. I've ripped both region A and B Blurays in the same session, although I've done with LG and Samsung drives, not Matshita.

The logs, however, does not show MakeMKV getting the signal that a disk was inserted; Did the display change to list the disk information in the Info box, like this?

Purchased a new player ... Pioneer BDR-XS06 BD/DVD/CD and everything is fine (DVD and Blu ray)

Have "trashed" the two older ones ...

They seem to last about a 1-1/2 year ... As I have purchased a number of players, which go out after a year or two

The other two, I thought were OK ... They were not

But, thanks for the response
