Expendables 3 DVD

Post by Farkle » Tue Dec 09, 2014 11:05 pm

Hello,

I just bought the Expendables 3 DVD and when I try to create the mkv file from the DVD I'm shown 4 possible titles showing the same size and 1 with a smaller size. The main difference is that each title shows different numbers of chapters, ie:

18 chapter(s), 6.4 GB
17 chapter(s), 6.4 GB
15 chapter(s), 4.7 GB
19 chapter(s), 6.4 GB
20 chapter(s), 6.4 GB

My question is how do I determine which is the correct one to chose? Thanks

OK, so I've found a couple of things but still not sure which file to use. If I play the dvd disc using VLC it tells me under playback that it is playing title 19 but I don't see where in MakeMKV it tells me the title #. I see Source title ID, but it doesn't have a title # of 19. Where do I find the title # in this program?

The "source title id" is the title number. If you don't see it, it means MakeMKV incorrectly skipped this title. Please do the following - enable expert mode in preferences, then check "open DVD in manual mode" mark. Press the big button, and when MakeMKV asks you for "manual string" enter the number 19 . See if it helps.
