Re: website down?

I wonder why not available for purchase. I purchased years ago and love this program. I imagine many other would gladly purchase to help support the product.

Re: Asus BW-16D1HT Firmware crashes? Faulty drive?

Had same problem. ASUS drive started locking up / shutting down during attempted rip and required a PC reboot to get it working enough to eject the Blu- Ray movie. I downgraded MakeMKV to v1.5.1 and issue seems fixed - Will use this version until I run into disks that won't work with the older MakeM...

Re: Another Bad BD Drive?

I did the path of least resistance and downgraded MakeMKV to v1.5.1 and I was able to just rip a BD. Yea!

If I start to run into disks MakeMKV does not work on I will try flashing my ASUS with the LG firmware viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19928

Re: "Fake playlist" protection - help needed

I uninstalled Java a month or so ago, figured I had no need for it, security risk bla bla bla. Today I opened a movie with many playlists "Judy", and and was surprised to see no playlist identification. Do I need to install Java again?

https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634 See that thread for info on how to flash. It's pretty painless and if you follow the instructions (there are videos linked in that first post) there's not a lot of risk involved. Having LibreDrive support is a benefit even on regular blu-...

Re: Ford vs Ferrari Errors.

I exchanged for a new disk. Same errors. Contacted Square trade and they are sending me out a $70 check. The only thing I ever use a DVD for is nowadays is with Makemkv. They seem to crap out after ~2years so a $2.78 4 year warranty purchase is well worth it. Type of coverage: 4 years Coverage start...

Re: If you're experiencing rip errors, please read here first!

Every 2 years or so I get these errors. Getting them now again. A new BD drive solves the problem. I have been buying LG drives, need to find a hardier drive. I have started to see this error message about ten days ago. For a while, quitting the program and re-starting it a few hours later worked. H...

Re: Failed blu ray rips more frequent. How likely is a bad drive?

My LG couldn't read the last 3 BDs I bought. Submitted claim to squaretrade. MakeMKV must be hard on BD drives since they rarely last more than two years and the only thing I use it with is MakMKV, maybe 5 discs a month ripped. This is why I got a squaretrade warranty with this last one.
