Old Version Available? - 1.7.0

[pkawata]

I am having problems ripping HD-DVD's using the latest version of makemkv. I've read that ver 1.7.0 works for that. Where can I get ver 1.7.0 for Win 7 and Mac? I've Google'd for ver 1.7.0 but haven't come up with any reliable download sites.

NM. I found them right here at makemkv's web site. I guess I didn't do a thorough enough search. Can anyone confirm though that v 1.7.0 works for HD-DVD's? - Thanks.

I ripped an HD-DVD yesterday using 1.7.7. The problem with opening HD-DVDs that forced you to back to 1.7.0 has been long fixed.

The problem with 1.7.7 wasn't with opening the HD-DVD. It allowed me to read the disk, but after a few minutes I got an error (I don't remember what it was) and terminated. This happened to several HD-DVD's that I tried.

My bad. I meant to say the the error occurred during transcoding and not while reading.

Hi!

1) It would be good if you'd post an error log for one of your recent problematic HD-DVD backups.

2) Have you tried to make a new backup of an HD-DVD that you previously were successful at copying? If you have/do and you still have the same problem, it is very likely that your drive is failing. On the other hand, if this re-copy is successful, then the problem is very likely with your original, commercial HD-DVDs...
