ASUS BW-16D1HT bare drive for my linux system.

Inquired on Thursday night, got reply same day. Ordered on Friday, received on Monday. Took Tuesday off, installed on Wednesday, running now.

What a boring story.

Thanks Alex!

If I am recalling correctly, VOB files themselves don't have chapter info. That is kept in other files in the VIDEO_TS directory. Did you save the complete backup?

No. Yes. Mission Control : Buckaroo, the White House wants to know is everything ok with the alien space craft from Planet 10 or should we just go ahead and destroy Russia? Buckaroo Banzai : Tell him yes on one and no on two. Mission Control : Which one was yes, go ahead and destroy Russia... or num...

When I ran a distribution that did not provide MakeMKV I would build it manually according to the instructions, but now I run a linux that does provide it, so I wait for the repository to catch up. For me it is usually only a day or two.

Am using Arch Linux, MakeMKV is in the AUR.

Mike says that will be fixed in the next release.

is that the correct playlist for the RB?

Redbox doesn't seem to have the Blu-ray.

Can anyone verify that 00741.mpls (Midway_t168.mkv) is the correct playlist for the Redbox Blu-ray version?

Yes, that is correct.

Why doesn't Java find the correct title? Shouldn't it?

It's not infallible. It can be improved.

It's Midway in 4K. This other thread https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=21505 says another program found #504 to be the correct playlist, this disc does have that one so I'm trying it. Also interestingly all my playlists have 7 numbers for segment map rather than 10. Ok, I don't fol...

Hmmm weird, and yeah there's a huge list.

Thinking... is it the correct title? Redbox also has Dauntless: The Battle Of Midway, although it is DVD-only where I am. Don't know about nationally.

I rented the Redbox version and neither 00539.mpls or 00741.mpls were even on the disc. I also couldn't find a playlist with the same segment map as in the screenshot. Anybody have any ideas? My Redbox rental has both and 741 matches the map shown above. Have not watched the movie, but quick testin...

mkvmerge will cut an mkv file into segments. You can split by time stamp, duration, chapter, etc.

Note that Criterion often uses LPCM audio. Could be your older player doesn't like that in an MKV container.

Use the MakeMKV "Open File" menu selection.

For Blu-ray select the index.bdmv file.

For DVD, select video_ts.ifo.

Using /usr/bin/true as the executable dummies out the operation. Not many cycles wasted.
