* Extract it to a folder
* Run it...it will download a copy of FindVUK and configure it

The following functions are available:

* Synchronize - Syncs the keydb.cfg file using FindVUK and then copies it to the MakeMKV data directory
* Validate - Validates your disc in the KeyDB file. This is a VERY good thing to be doing with all your discs!! It helps to maintain the integrity of the KeyDB.
* Disc Info - Shows you the information for your disc including the disc ID. If your KeyDB.cfg file contains device keys and/or processing keys, it COULD, in theory, maybe use those to ADD entries to the KeyDB. You know, for those pesky MKB v82 blu-rays everyone is loving.
* Disc Hash - Content Hash validation for the disc. I personally use this on my mounted protected ISOs after creating them to validate they're good but you can use it directly on a disc if you want, it'll just be slower
* Search - Allows you to search for a disc ID to see if it's in the keydb
* Settings - Allows you to specify additional directories to copy the keydb.cfg file to

The MKB v82 device key has been added to the public keydb.cfg. You no longer need to add it using the Fix functionality in my tool.

Once in a great while when the luck of the stars work in your favor, SOMETIMES on rare occasions this disc info process might help you find a VUK for a UHD that you're waiting for. To be clear, this code contains ZERO keys and there are NO public AACS 2.x processing keys...but sometimes you get lucky with other entries that could be in the KeyDB just waiting to be taken advantage of at times.

NOTE: This will not work on certain Pioneer drives. The VID needs to be able to be read correctly for it to work.

If you see [MakeMKV SUPPORTED]: FALSE it means that the KeyDB entry does not contain a VUK. You should post a dump or a link to a dump for your disc to see if someone can add a full entry to the KeyDB for your disc

That's all it does. But should make things easier for those who use the KeyDB in concert with MakeMKV.

NOTE: I added an experimental feature to check discs that have an AACS directory but the contents of the disc are NOT encrypted. I don't have any such discs myself so I couldn't test it but in theory it might tell you when it detects that. It also might present false positives so let me know how you make out with this one.


NOTE: This will require .NET 8 Framework runtime be installed. You can find the latest here:
