I'm new to MakeMKV and tried it out with Arrow's 4K The Killer limited edition, 3 discs. The two blu-ray discs are Region B while I live in Region A. I could use some assistance with burning the copies. I use Nero and Plex Disc BD-R DL 6X.

Disc Two- Extras. No menu was created on the burned disc. The individual chapters play, going from one to the next automatically. But no menu
Disc Three- Extended Cut. Three versions: Taiwan Extended Cut, Extended Cut with additional scenes from Taiwan VHS, Unrestored print of the Extended Cut with burnt in subtitles. File Explorer says that the disc is 44.9 Gb. Three files were created by MakeMKV. The total folder size is 63.0 Gb. Too big for a single DL BD-R.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

For starters, if you want a 1:1 copy of the entire disc, do not press the big disc drive button, use the backup function, which is the 2nd button (looks like a folder) from the left in the top menu. This will allow you to decrypt and rip the entire disc to a folder, then use your burning program of choice to write the folder to a disc. MakeMKV removes/ignores any region coding so you should not have to worry about that.

Also, if you want to write a ripped disc to a DL BD-R and the ripped folder is larger (should only happen for UHD discs), you will have to re-encode the main movie m2ts file(s) enough so that the entire folder will fit. A free option to try would be BD Rebuilder. I haven't used it in about 15 years but might work for you. Just use your MakeMKV ripped folder as the source.

99.99% of folks here do not burn to optical discs so you likely won't get much help for that from this forum.
