Game of Thrones Season 8 4K Blu-ray (Triple-Layer Issue)

Hi,

I am currently attempting to rip the newly release game of thrones 4k discs. I believe the issue is that these discs are 100GB Triple Layer BDs. When any rip gets above 25GB, the makemkv just crashes. I believe that the drive is trying to read the discs in 25GB intervals when the discs in question here are written in 33GB intervals (3x33GB =100GB). I haven't had any issues ripping 50GB or 75GB UHDs.

Is anyone else having this issue? I am running the ASUS-BW-16D1HT, and I have tried this on firmware's 3.01,3.02 and MK 3.10.

I might be getting my set later today so I'll try to rip them tonight and see how it goes. I assume you microfiber'd the discs?

EDIT:

Or not...


We're encountering a delay in shipping your order. We'll send a confirmation as soon as it ships and communicate the expected delivery date. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Well doesn't that suck.

Yeah I did, tried for hours but no dice. Would be great to know if this a big issue or if I was just unlucky in my discs.
Cheers.

As you can see by my edit, I'm clearly not getting mine today but as soon as it comes I'll try.

Better luck than me, so far. I'm still getting that the key was not found (just sent the log to Mike).

Think we are looking at poor disc production and weird software problems then?

No software issues but likely poor disc quality yes. I get mine tomorrow according to the updated delivery info. I'll see what happens.

Same exact issue here.

Discs 2 & 3 worked just fine. But Disc 1 fails to load. Even macOS has trouble reading it, and after a long time of scanning the disc, it just reads it as a blank BD.

I tried cleaning the disc, no dice.

I did try playing it in my UHD player, though, and it works just fine.

Where did everyone order their discs from out of curiosity? Maybe certain distributors are rough with the boxes or there is some bad batches. I ordered mine from Amazon UK.

Amazon US... preordered back in may which is why I'm seriously annoyed it hasn't come yet.

I got a copy of the Steelbook from Amazon and I cannot copy the 4K copies. I went to BestBuy and they have the same Steelbook version so I wasn't very optimistic, but I am finishing Disc 2 as I write this, fingers crossed for Disc 3.
