Can't open .bdmv file

Post by Timberflake1983 »

Hi all, having a weird problem whereby certain .bdmv files won't open.

I'm on Mac using v1.17.3, most of the time I can go into file>open file and then select the .bdmv I want to open but sometimes it doesn't work. For example I have The Prestige, I can the both both the index.bdmv and MovieObject.bdmv but when I try to open either of them nothing happens, makemkv does nothing, no error, nothing.

Has anyone else come across this? Not really sure how to fix it.

Does MakeMKV give an error or output anything in the log when you open a BDMV folder and it doesn't work?

What's the provenance of your BDMV folders? In my workflow, I almost always make a decrypted backup up a blu-ray first with MakeMKV and use MakeMKV to open the BDMV folder and create .mkv files from that. I've never had one not work.
