Masterpiece Les Miserables help

[C0C0B]

So I bought the PBS Masterpiece of Les Miserables and I wanted to rip the episodes for Plex however it's a complete mess and I don't have to room to rip every single file. I was wondering if anyone had this or had an idea of how to figure out which files to take. There are two discs and both look like this. There are 3 episodes on both discs and I originally thought I could differentiate based on file size but they're all either 11.5 GB or 12.8 GB. There are two smaller files however they're only 2 and 3 chapters respectively. So long story short I was hoping someone would have some insight on what to do.

This is what I use. I have not watched each episode to verify.

Episode 1: 00731.mpls
Episode 2: 00578.mpls
Episode 3: 00332.mpls
Episode 4: 00576.mpls
Episode 5: 00817.mpls
Episode 6: 00545.mpls

Using MakeMKV 1.18.3 on Manjaro and pointing MakeMKV to a jdk-21.0.10 installation, I can confirm the above. I am attaching screenshots showing the title discovery in MakeMKV and also the information for each title is noted below. I'll also say that this disc set I have is unfriendly to my Panasonic DP-UB9000, specifically that disc 1 will only play Part 2 no matter which part I select from the menu. From that BD player there is no way to access Part 1 or Part 3 on disc 1, which is quite ridiculous. I returned the original set for a replacement from Amazon and the replacement exhibited the same behavior. There is also at least one other review on Amazon that notes the same problem. For a non-profit outfit like PBS to go to Lionsgate-length shenanigans to obfuscate the titles and make life hard on paying customers is beyond ridiculous.

Since I was able to successfully archive the episodes I kept the paid-for replacement discs, even though I can't watch them on my DP-UB9000. I wouldn't feel right shipping them back for a refund while having successfully made the MKVs, but still the time and annoyance to sort this out may have justified it...
