Linux Issue

[iswanb]

I have an odd issue. I have 2 PCs. One Win11 and one Linux Mint (23.x I think). For what it is worth, I have ripped 200+ movies on my Win PC. I am trying to set up my Linux PC to rip movies as well.

I successfully installed MakeMKV on the Linux box. I installed Crossover (a Wine frontend?) to allow me to run SDFTool. SDFTool runs successfully, but does not find the drive to flash. So I gave up and flashed it on my Win Pc and moved it back to the Linux box. Everything looks great in MakeMKV. The problem is that I get an error when the movie completes it's rip. - "Copy complete. 0 titles saved, 1 failed."

Here are the specs from MakeMKV on the Linux box.

Now I take that same drive and install in my Win PC and rip the same movie. And everything works correctly. The settings all look the same to me.

And the issue is not just with this one movie. Every movie I try to rip gives me the same error like the disc is bad.

I do not think this matters, but here is my other drive that is normally in my Win PC.

This very much sounds like a folder permission error to me. Could you please check the folder permissions (the folder where MakeMKV is trying to store the rip) with "stat" and modify them with "chmod" if necessary ?

SDFTool runs successfully, but does not find the drive to flash.

For the record, flashing with SDFtool Flasher on Windows is fine of course, but you can also flash with the command line on Linux, although in that case you should use makemkv-bin-1.17.6 or makemkv-bin-1.17.7
