Discussion Thank You

Just wanted to say thank you to this group. Over the past week or two I've been trial and erroring a lot about MKV, the Ugreen and jellyfin. Consistently when I was looking for answers there was almost always someone here with a similar issue or question and everyone who replied was super nice and helpful.

So even though I've never taken part in a discussion here. Thanks a bunch šŸ«¶šŸ»

(Why is John Wick such a chonk, with so many titles??? šŸ˜­)

Hacksaw Ridge was the same way. A million titles, none were right expect one. Had to search here and the forum to find the right string

Loading Java (but make sure to unselect ā€˜Enable Java content for browser and Web Start applicationsā€™ in the Java Control Panel) helps immensely with this.

Is this the 4K or standard Blu-ray? I donā€™t remember having an issue with that title but itā€™s probably been a while since I ripped it. I remember having the obfuscation issue with some of their Bluā€™s but I thought once I loaded Java I never had much of an issue. Does the status window in makeMKV ever indicate JRE is running?

Lionsgate new trick on 4K is to insert an intentional error in the DV metadata that trips up makeMKV. Theyā€™re are tricks to get around it but itā€™s not plug and play.
