Re: Why use MKV vs other video compression

If you are already creating MKV files from your media content using MakeMKV, then you are already remuxing by definition.

So, are you looking for alternative apps that may do the same or similar?

Re: LG BH16Ns40 UHD Friendly

It may be fully bricked. If in the end not even the SDFTool can’t fix it as advised by Billy, move on and buy a new drive. And as we have advised countless of times by now in this forum, next time pay attention, to avoid going through this all over again.

You were advise and warned about this and to read that guide in at least 3 different times already in your posts across the forum. Yet you sti...
