![]() ![]() You may actually need some trial and error to find the proper one. However, on a classic title like Yellow Submarine, it is possible that a stereo track is the actual movie soundtrack. On most modern titles, the DTS Master, Dolby True HD, AC3 or dts tracks are usually the main soundtracks. Usually, the first tracks shown in MakeMKV for a specific title are the main soundtracks. In general, though I advise to have only one track in an MKV intended for conversion in DCP-o-matic. Having multiple audio tracks in an MKV will increase the time DCP-o-matic needs to analyse the content, but that shouldn't be a problem. Justin - you can have multiple audio tracks selected in MakeMKV, and then in DCP-o-matic listen/select which one you want to use for the DCP. In that case, you often see hundreds or even thousands of playlists, many of them having the same length as the feature, but the chapters in the wrong order. Some studios have started to load their BluRays with so-called garbage or fake playlists, to confuse people who want to RIP the content. Since the Main Menu is just a Java program, there is no known-to-be-good way to determine what constitutes the main feature. The problem is that a real BluRay player would start the Java based main menu and it will load the right playlist once you hit the "Play feature" button in that main menu. VLC can't really play the BluRay menu, so this trick doesn't really work with VLC. Once you're playing the movie itself, try looking in the Playback->Title menu to determine which title you're playing, and then cross-reference that to MakeMKV.Įdit: According to the thread Marcel linked, the VLC method does seem to work, but it would be worth looking in the Tools->Media Information window as well.There is a common trick where you use PowerDVD to start the playback of the movie and check with the Process Monitor tools what files are being accessed on playback. Without my Bluray reader in front of me to test this out, I would try the following: These are alternate language versions and you should just rip them all and then delete the ones you don't need. According to a tutorial on YouTube, sometimes you'll find multiple Titles that are all the same, very large size. If there is a Title with a file size that is vastly larger in than all the rest, that's your best bet. It obviously doesn't stop the real pirates as all those copies end up on file-sharing sites anyway, but as you can see, it once again, primarily frustrates legitimate usage. As part of a false sense of "anti-piracy", many Blu-Rays are stuffed with so-called garbage playlists. I have figured out that the 5.1 Dolby Digital track is often going to be the narration track, but beyond that I'm lost.Īny other tips or feedback would be appreciated.If the automatic guessing of the correct playlist file of MakeMKV doesn't work, then have a look here. I have run about 5 tests so far and I keep winding up with audio tracks which are either commentary or descriptive narration. The problem I'm having is trying to identify the correct playlist in MakeMKV. I already know I can rip the content from the Blu-Ray using MakeMKV, then write to a DCP using DCP-O-Matic. I would like to create a DCP from the Blu-Ray, but I'm looking for some feedback. DCP content is not available, so we will need to play from Blu-Ray. Later this month we are playing Yellow Submarine at our drive-in. If you choose to upload an avatar image, please remember that it IS a requirement that the image must be a clear photo of your face.
