Please remove/chang the shortcut ctrl+b for quitting MakeMKV

[ShiningDragon]

Hi there,

i am not sure, if this was mentioned before, but i have a fairly big problem with the above called shortcut. Everytime if i paste a title into MakeMKV (CTRL+V) and touch the button "B" instead "V", MakeMKV closes without any question.
It's very annoying, if you have a disk with 10 or more episodes or took care of 50+ chapters and this happens before processing the disc...

So please change it to another button, perhaps Q? Or remove it - or make it optional within a configuration file. Please, really, you don't know how often this happened already to me.

What version? Cntrl-B does nothing on the Windows GUI. I tried pasting-with-B in both entry line, and it was ignored.

MakeMKV 1.10.9 (x86-64 Version)
GUI (x86 Version)
Windows 10 (x86-64)

This combination does nothing on your system? ctrl-b worked by me on many, many MakeMKV releases and operating systems. And really: This is annoying... you're inserting a lot of thing via ctrl-v and on the last one you hit ctrl-b -> all is gone away.

And i am SURE this works on your system too: Just open "File" in the menubar and take a look down (quit) or for the german ones: "Datei" -> "Beenden" -> Shortcut CTRL-B.

But this shortcut is NOT limited to an open menubar. It's working even on the GUI, while entering titlenames, filenames, tags, languages, chapters etc.

I tested this myself on Win7 (x64) & as Woodstock reports, it does nothing. Any chance you are running some sort of 'keystroke monitor' software that might enhance standard Windows behavior?

[ShiningDragon]

Nope, nothing running in the background, what should interfere with MakeMKV. But i'll close all other apps for now and check again.

Just doublechecked, restart while disabled all non system-needed software were disabled. No change in the behaviour. Pressing CTRL-B on ANY place is shutting down MakeMKV immediately. Will check now on a Windows Server 2012 R2.

EDIT: This behaviour happens on Windows Server 2012 R2 too.

Are your keyboards damaged? :D

I can't believe, that you don't experience this behaviour... i could doublecheck on another physical machines in my home and will get the same experience.

Mac version - File/Close (no shortcut offered/shown on the menu)

Physically attempting ⌘-B does not close the app.

Just open "File" in the menubar and take a look down (quit) or for the german ones: "Datei" -> "Beenden" -> Shortcut CTRL-B.

It must be because of localization of German language, Beenden = B.

On an English system, the menu reads File / Quit / CTRL+Q.

... sometimes i could bite my...

You give me a good point: Just switched the default language of MakeMKV to english -> no problem any more with CTRL-B - now it's CTRL-Q, but this is not a problem for me. Q is far away from C and V. :D

I wouldn't say, that the problem is solved (because shutting down the app without warning is not nice), but i can live for now with it.
