Command Line Examples: MakeMKVCon64

Post by Fuzemkv » Tue Jul 17, 2012 8:02 pm

So I'm trying my darndest to make a script that automates some of my processes for ripping my dvd collection. I'm getting stuck on one of the simplest parts, starting MakeMKV from the command line. I've created a very basic windows batch files just to test that this part is working. Well, it's not, and I can't figure out what I need to do.

I'm trying to just rip the main movie and that is all.. so I'm using the following command line arguments:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MakeMKV\makemkvcon64.exe" --minlength=3600 --decrypt mkv disc:0 0 C:\Video\Dvd_Prep\Temp

The command line instructions say to pass <source> <titleid> <destination>. I don't know what titleid is and so I've tried just passing "0" and leaving that argument out, but nothing appears to work. Any help would be much appreciated.

Ok, turns out I'm stupid. The command I posted above does work, but my disk tray was open and so it wasn't working.

Now, using that same command, I'm receiving the following error:

"Failed to save title 0 to file <filepath>"
0 titles saved, 1 failed.

Any idea. I feel like it has something to do with the titleid that I'm passing in the original CLI query.
