Two copies of a Movie on UHD Disc

Post by Dealseeker »

Hi everyone,

Just getting back into ripping my movies to MKV since last doing it with DVDs way back when. I grabbed my first disc in alphabetical order (A Quiet Place) and ripped it yesterday. However, it appears that there are 2 copies of the movie on the disk so I got 2 MKV files, both exactly the same size of 57GB. I've opened up both and checked the specs for them and they appear at first glance to be identical. I just opened up MakeMKV with this disc again to take a closer look and lo and behold there are definitely 2 copies on the disc itself. Any idea how I can tell the difference between them and which one I should rip and keep and which I shouldn't?

Thanks for helping out a newbie.

Thanks! I did a search for a bunch of terms before posting but playlist wasn’t one of them. I’ll read through it.

In this case, the one you want is undoubtedly the one with chapters, not the one without.

Thanks! I’ve been pouring through the forums and am slowly educating myself on what to look for.
