Running MakeMKV 1.17.8 (flatpak) on Pop OS.
I've been running MKV for months and months since switching to Linux without a problem. My normal output directory is a folder on my Media drive:
/media/xxxx/Media/DVD Video Recording
However, lately, when I try to set that, I get this path appearing in MakeMKV:
/run/user/1000/doc/77e92ab7/DVD Video Recording
And any attempt to rip the disc results in a failure due to lack of permissions to make the folder.
So, anyone have any idea what changed in my system? Why can't I simply point the app to the folder anymore?

Hi,
sounds like a problem with the permissions.
You could try:
Or install Flatseal for a nice GUI

You could try:
Code: Select all
flatpak override com.makemkv.MakeMKV --filesystem="/media/xxxx/Media/DVD Video Recording"
