Re: Looking for Recommendations: External 4K BluRay Drive (USB)

Mduell. Thank you - I was not aware of this!!

I was thinking that with DVD and BluRays disappearing in favour of 4K discs - I could use something like MakeMKV to do the initial ripping - then HandBrake to then downsize the file... But apparently I may not be able to do that...

Thank you

Woodstock - a very informative reply. Thank you. I understand it much better now.

Much appreciated!!

Re: MP4 - Subtitles - Not Showing...

Hello Woodstock... So - if I understand correctly: 1. MP4 does not support the DVD subtitles - but MKV does. But my two TVs do not support MKV :( 2. VLC deals with it - because the second track is 'switchable' - but that only works in VLC. This makes sense. 3. There does not appear to be a way to ge...

Re: HandBrake 1.2.2 - AnyDVD - Movie The Internship

S55 - ok - makeMKV worked - but I still used AnyDVD to process the disk (I think).

The only thing I have to do now is turn off sub-titles :)
