Have you tried downloading the latest KEYDB.cfg file, copying it into MakeMKV's data directory (i.e. where MakeMKV also writes its TGZ dump files) and restarting MakeMKV?

If this doesn't work, could you upload your TGZ dump file into a file host such as Google Drive or OneDrive please, and then reply with a public download link? This would allow people to try adding your disk to the public KEYDB.cfg file.

I downloaded the keydb file and placed it in the same folder as the dump tgz files, restarted MakeMKV and it appears to work now.

Does that mean any time I run into a newly released disc that can't be read, I should re-download the keydb.cfg file from that link and copy that into the data folder again? Then, if that doesn't work, submit the dump files here?

Next time I will also include a google drive link to any submissions. But since it is working for me, I assume I no longer need to do that. Please let me know if you think differently.

Thanks.

The public KEYDB.cfg file is an optional extra database of keys that MakeMKV can use, if it's available, so "yes" it's always worth a try . And if you're also using Windows then SamuriHL has written a KeyDB Assistant utility that simplifies the process of keeping your local KEYDB up-to-date.

Just wanted to say thanks! This thread helped me solve the same issue I was having with a different disk.
