Only issue I see, is the disc is showing 73.2 GB, however the rip is showing 69.22 GB. Don't know why the difference.

Going to do disc two next.

Sure... when you do the backup, there is a dialog box that opens up, there is a check mark in the "decrypt" box, uncheck it. Then do the backup. Once the backup is complete, use the File-->Open Files. Then point it to the folder with the disc image, and go the normal route of ripping a disc.

I have the files saved to an SSD, and then ripped to the same SSD drive, hence the message I received. For the second disc, I saved to SSD #1 and ripped it to SSD #2. No issues. And boy is it quick.

Can you confirm the size of the rips?

Disc 1 = 69.22 GB file showed 73.2 GB
Disc 2 = 86 GB file showed 91.0 GB

I didn't do every audio track but mine looks similar, they were 70-some and 90-some in MakeMKV but the video file were smaller after dumping
Disc 1 - 63.1 GiB (67,764,270,369)
Disc 2 - 78.4 GiB (84,181,143,085)

I'm having trouble with disc one. It gets stuck at that same 650ish mark everyone else mentions on a regular rip, the full disc backup fails with "decrypt video files" unchecked, I've even tried some other software that usually works where makemkv fails, but it gets stuck too. I've cleaned the disc and tried across my three drives (an LG, and ASUS, and a Pioneer) dozens of times at this point and it always fails at the same exact spot. A/V sync issues and then it won't progress. Disc 2 had this issue but I was able to get a successful backup and then "rip" that. Any Suggestions?

I already merged them into a single movie file but they’re likely the same. My total file is 144.5 GiB - which is what you’re reporting.

Disc 1 = 69.22 GB file showed 73.2 GB
Disc 2 = 86 GB file showed 91.0 GB

I was able to backup directly from the disc using MakeMKV. If you notice, the output file size pauses at 1m31s, however you can see the Read rate slowly increase, then decrease, then increase, as it continues to scan all 3 UHD layers of the disc. After an hour when the scan is done, then you will see the Output size start to increase again with complaints about time codes. Disc 1 took about 4 hours and Disc 2 took about 5 hours.

However, there is a problem. While the resulting mkv files play fine, and UHD10 data is intact, the DoVi data stops at 1m31s in both discs (right when the freeze happens and MakeMKV starts scanning the disc while not outputting anything).

I'd be curious if someone using xreveal can check the DoVi content of their first disc:
Extract RPU 7:
ffmpeg -loglevel warning -err_detect ignore_err -i "Kill Bill- The Whole Bloody Affair (2011){P1 00001[tmdbid-414419]}.mkv" -c:v copy -progress pipe:2 -bsf:v hevc_mp4toannexb -f hevc - | dovi_tool extract-rpu - -o rpu7.bin

Get RPU frame count:
dovi_tool info -i rpu7.bin -f 162169

My results for disc 1:
Parsing RPU file...
Error: info: invalid frame number (out of range)
Number of valid RPUs parsed: 2298

There should be 162170 instead of 2298 (1m 31s at 23.976fps)

Forum user chalaheadchala observed a similar 2298 frame RPU issue on the discs Ginger Snaps and Leprechaun: Link

It might be worth trying v1.18.[0-3] to determine if this is a regression in MakeMKV or an authoring quirk of certain newer releases that might benefit from a MakeMKV update.

Edit: I think all three 2298 frame RPU discs are Lionsgate releases. Might not be a coincidence.

I tried two 1.18.3 commits and one 1.18.2 commit, with the same resulting behavior (flathub doesn't go back any further)
1.18.3 commit 440c72cedbabd4a2c3948c94671bc708b7a5cbc8c55e8ce914b8278d2e2c38de
1.18.3 commit cbad7729c82db20f31c91d2c3529f2fd8be19d8ec91ed5394bf5eba0e3c45b5f
1.18.2 commit 6aedfcf9d719ded301088e059484efe37973bfa78fbe11d3fffa6403645da943
sudo flatpak update --commit=6aedfcf9d719ded301088e059484efe37973bfa78fbe11d3fffa6403645da943 com.makemkv.MakeMKV

Hopefully a MakeMKV update can address these Lionsgate 2298 frame RPU discs.

Neither one of my UHDs will rip, Disc 1 stops @ 654.1MB, Disc 2 @ 937.5MB. Read through some of this thread, see no resolution. Did I miss it?

There is an issue when MakeMKV tries to interleave the BL and EL hevc streams for these "Lionsgate 2298 frame RPU" discs. With info from chalaheadchala's posts, I am using this work around for the time being:
1. Use MakeMKV to backup the disc Decrypted
2. Use ffmpeg, dovi_tool, and mkvmerge to create a MKV with DoVi information intact.

For example for disc 1:
get chapters from 00001.mpls

Code: Select all

mkvmerge -A -D -S Videos/backup/THE_WHOLE_BLOODY_AFFAIR_UHD_D1/BDMV/PLAYLIST/00001.mpls -o chapters.mkv
get BL and EL hevc, audio, and subtitle streams from 00000.m2ts

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i Videos/backup/THE_WHOLE_BLOODY_AFFAIR_UHD_D1/BDMV/STREAM/00000.m2ts -map 0:v:0 -c:v copy -bsf:v hevc_mp4toannexb -f hevc BL.hevc -map 0:v:1 -c:v copy -bsf:v hevc_mp4toannexb -f hevc EL.hevc -map 0:a -c:a copy audio.mkv -map 0:s -c:s copy sub.mkv
interleave the BL and EL hevc streams into one video hevc stream

Code: Select all

dovi_tool mux --bl BL.hevc --el EL.hevc -o video.hevc
create mkv for Disc 1

Code: Select all

mkvmerge -o Disc1.mkv chapters.mkv video.hevc audio.mkv sub.mkv
The issue might be related to this warning I get from ffprobe at the 1m31s mark:

Code: Select all

[in#0 @ 0x2a4e1f40] Invalid Block Addition value 0x0 for unknown Block Addition Mapping type 68766345, name "Dolby Vision enhancement-layer HEVC configuration"
[in#0 @ 0x2a4e1f40] Unsupported encoding type
MakeMKV could be getting tripped up by this during the BL and EL interleaving.

THe Backup" option is greyed out on mine. Is there some magic to enable this? THanks.

The Backup toolbar button is enabled after you insert a disc but before you click the large drive button.

Thanks - this process worked for me. Much appreciated!
