Hereditary Blu Ray Playlist Obfuscation

Does anyone have the correct playlist number for Hereditary on Blu Ray? I don't think I'm tech-savvy enough to try and locate the playlist myself; I just spent a good hour reading forums on how to figure out the correct mpls file on your own and I'm struggling. Thanks in advance

Java doesn't seem to be helping me with the obfuscation. I'd love some help on this myself!

Retail Version (U.S.A)


00535.MPLS [INCORRECT]



Yes that's embarrassing I went by this MPLS for the full Blu-ray and It seemed OK I got this from somewhere else so I will
not be relying on that source anymore I have never been let down here so I will wait for the correct Retail MPLS on here
from now on to be published - Thanks (Yes 00587.MPLS Works 100% On Untouched Blu-ray Blank Copy As Well)


Watched the Film & It Worked 100% Using (00587.MPLS)

Java is picking a different playlist than the one listed above for my Redbox copy:

Title information
Name: Hereditary (English)
Comment: FPL_MainFeature
Source file name: 00057.mpls
Duration: 2:07:25
Chapters count: 16

00535.MPLS doesn't seem to be the right one for the US retail. I ripped it and it's playing the movie out of order.

I can confirm that Redbox is 00587.mpls using the method described in this link. viewtopic.php?t=16251

Looks like U.S. retail and Redbox are the same.

00587.mpls worked fine from my retail copy

00587.mpls shows the same segment map on my retail copy as the Redbox version.
Should be good!

This is a really wacky one... Also Steveredrum is wrong.. 00535.MPLS is definitely out of order.

I bought this BD on Amazon and ripped the "main feature" one to my Plex library. Tried watching it last night and something felt.. off.... I'd seen this in theaters, but the editing felt strange and like it jumped around. Then I noticed the conversation between Joan and Annie was definitely scrambled. Their conversation just didn't make sense and was out of order.

What's even stranger is that I tried comparing my rip side by side with the disc playing on my Mac through some BD player software. Even the video straight from the disc player was jumbled! It wasn't playing correctly from my disc drive on my computer. Maybe this movie is truly cursed :twisted:

Now I've tried ripping the 00587.mpl, and I'm playing it concurrently with my free streaming copy from Vudu, hoping that will give me the correct playback for reference.

On my disk, it looks like mpls 9, 437 and 587 all have the same segment map?

I just ran it through procmon and 587 is the correct playlist for me. The output filename is Hereditary_t229.mkv.

TINFO:229,2,0,"Hereditary"
TINFO:229,8,0,"16"
TINFO:229,9,0,"2:07:25"
TINFO:229,10,0,"36.1 GB"
TINFO:229,11,0,"38768216064"
TINFO:229,16,0,"00587.mpls"
TINFO:229,25,0,"20"
TINFO:229,26,0,"510,517,505,509,511,520,516,506,507,513,514,512,501,518,515,502,508,504,503,519"
TINFO:229,27,0,"Hereditary_t229.mkv"

I don't remember where I purchased the blu-ray but I feel like it was either Best-Buy or Amazon
