just a thank you (no sarcasm)

If the moderators find posts like this more irritating than useful, I won't be offended if you delete it.

I just wanted to say that MakeMKV is awesome. I've been using it for two years. I switched my main PC, and rather than re-use my previous activation code I just bought another one as a form of thank-you. Even with DVDs, it can rip a lot of disks that HandBrake and similar tools can't manage.

I wholeheartedly agree! Bought the license several years ago. Thanks for your continued support!

I would like to add a Thank You to the contributors of this forum.
Their contributions are most helpful.

For example, this is how to successfully compile makemkv with the old gcc compiler of the deprecated Ubuntu 12.04 Precise distribution.

You'll need 3 modifications to the standard procedure, otherwise compilation stops in the make process with an error 01.

1. ./configure CFLAGS='-D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS -D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS'
(not sure that this is compulsory, prevents useless warnings)

2. Generated Makefile
Replace "-std=c+11" in line $(GXX) -std=c++11 $(CFLAGS) ...
with "-std=c++0x"

3. Libmkv.cpp in libmakemkv/src
Move the lines
#ifndef __STDC_FORMAT_MACROS
#define __STDC_FORMAT_MACROS 1
#endif
#include <inttypes.h>
BEFORE the other #include directives
