Re: Hamlet (2009) - DBG ASSERT error

Last night, I did a second try with 1.7.3. I powercycled the blu-ray drive, and ensured that makemkvcon was killed, before: powering up the drive, restarting MakeMKV, and inserting the disc. (I'm not entirely convinced that the order has any bearing, but that's what I do to try to be sure MakeMKV ge...

installer doesn't steal focus at ALL

Minor quibble, but I rebooted before I could figure out why the installer froze things up. The AGREE dialog was behind all the other Finder windows, and only showed up for .01 sec as Restart closed down window by window. A dialog that freezes things up ought to steal focus of the app in question (*F...

Re: makemkvcon keeps running after Quit

This is still happening (almost every time - very reproducible). I have screenshots of Sample Process info. Let me know if you want those, or if there is anything else I can do to help track down and squash this.

Re: trouble with Bridesmaids?

Less offense than some. Thanks for trying to not make this personal. ;-) I'm not sure why some responses are attacking me for trying to help MakeMKV be the best that it can be. That doesn't seem productive to me. So, here's the deal again: EVERY disc from my library that I rip with the combination o...

Re: MakeMKV beta key forgot about leap day! ;-P

Thanks for responding Mike. All I can say is that Avangate has done this to me MULTIPLE TIMES now, and they recently did the same thing to a close personal friend, so I'm not pulling this out of my ass. They demanded a multitude of personal information, including photocopies of drivers' licenses and...

Re: MakeMKV beta key forgot about leap day! ;-P

Mike, I really appreciate the software you've made. It saves my ass daily. I have contributed much time and energy to beta testing and making constructive suggestions. I like MakeMKV so much that I wanted to give you $50, which is a lot for me these days (and, yes, I'd like to not have to deal with ...

Re: Thanks

I have been saying THANK YOU to Mike for years. I have also been contributing beta-tester work, and I have been *trying* to pay Mike for one of the few truly useful pieces of non-standard software I use.

Re: trouble with Bridesmaids?

Well, as MakeMKV is still in beta, I feel it is my duty to report what's going on, so *anything* that MakeMKV *could possibly* do will be implemented before commercial release. I'd bet there are *many* users out there who will not be happy to hear that their relatively new and unused 2009 vintage, P...

Re: Watchmen Director's Cut

You might assume so, but it turns out that the SMALLER file is the one with "director walkons", storyboards, comparisons, etc. Weird. At least, in this case, it's obvious which is which, so I can toss the 26gb file and just watch the movie, mostly secure in the knowledge that I have the en...

MakeMKV beta key forgot about leap day! ;-P

I shouldn't have restarted the app, but makemkvcon is still freezing up and requiring a manual kill (probably a topic I should go find and revive). Upon restart, though, I get "Evaluation period has expired. Please purchase an activation key if you've found this application useful. You may stil...

Wings of Desire - no audio track selected by default

Wings of Desire has a bunch of extras with audio tracks in ONLY one of several "foreign" languages, these tracks get ripped by default settings without ANY audio at all. MakeMKV should be smart enough to know to rip the ONLY audio track, even if it isn't the "preferred language",...
