It's been in BETA status for years. Doesn't give a good impression about its quality. When will it ever get out of beta?

There is a lot of software out there that never leaves beta - Windows 10 is an example. Everyone running it is a beta tester. "Release" versions are "feature fixed", and only bugs will be repaired. Beta software can mutate in ways that software that has "release" versions usually don't.
Should MakeMKV ever leave beta, those rules about BD "trial run" periods will be more rigidly enforced.
Oh I have no doubt about it's quality. The word Beta just messes with my perfection OCD.drxenos wrote: Sat Jun 27, 2026 1:30 pm I think the fact people have been using it for years gives a good impression of its quality.
