Re: mkvmerge --split returns unexpected results
I think it might help if you take a moment and understand the difference between lossy and lossless compression. Lossless compression is what you get with a zip file. When you decompress a zip file you get an exact duplicate of what was compressed; all of the data is returned. Lossy compression is w...

Re: Looking for a 4k region free blu-ray drive
4K UHDs are not region coded. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_HD_Blu-ray On May 12, 2015, the Blu-ray Disc Association revealed completed specifications and the official Ultra HD Blu-ray logo. Unlike conventional DVDs and Blu-rays, the new 4K format does not have region coding. If you get an opt...

Re: save to ISO not Mkv
With DVDs, if you use the backup option, MakeMKV will produce an ISO.
After putting the disc in the drive and after MakeMKV has registered that the disc is there, at the top of the windows click the icon of the yellow folder with the green arrow.

Maybe this one is what you're talking about: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Shogun-Blu-ray/103521/ Here's the entry for it at DVDCompare: https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=28217 Both of those sources indicate there's several languages of subtitles, but seemingly only the single Eng...

Re: Windows: Can't change the region of any Blu-ray drive
I seem to recall there's a way to change the region in VLC software, probably in the preferences somewhere. Unfortunately, I rarely use VLC so can't point you directly to it.

Re: The volume key is unknown for all discs
I think the OP is doing regular blu-rays. Shouldn't need to download any keys for that, right? It should just work.
I wonder if the ISOs of blu-rays made with multiMAN is somehow not doing the right thing?
I don't have any experience with using a PS3 or multiMAN.

Re: MakeMKV fails without additional info in log
I made a backup of the disc with MakeMKV and I opened the resulting .iso image with MakeMKV. Exactly the same structure becomes visible as when opening the disc directly, including the wrong duration of the last episode. Ripping the pertained episode results in the same error at the same location. ...

Re: Sometimes cannot open titles from backups?
Strictly speaking, you don't have to make a decrypted backup. When you open the backup in MakeMKV later, the decryption can happen then. However, for 4K UHDs, a hashed key downloaded from a server on the internet is required to decrypt the disc or backup. If a key isn't available either because a ke...

Hopefully MakeMKV's author, Mike, will see your post.
Out of curiosity, can you make a backup for the DVD disc in question?

Re: Aliens 4K (Ultimate Collector Edition)
Do you have a different drive you can try? Often when I have a disc that doesn't work in a drive I get different results with the same disc in a different drive.

Re: 'Save Selected Titles' button greyed out/not clickable
If you're on the first screen in MakeMKV and you have a disc in the drive, you have to click the big disc icon to get to the title selection screen where the 'Save Selected Titles' button will be active.
