I'm having similar problems with 1.17.9 to those mentioned below with 1.17.8. I'm not sure if 1.17.8 was working for me either (I cannot remember if I used that exact version). I'll be doing some more troubleshooting with another drive and report results.
I switched back to 1.17.7 today and everything is working again. Note that I was having this problem with an Asus BW-16D1HT using SATA. I have access to an external Pioneer bluray burner using USB which worked with 1.17.9.
Hi FabioLolix, thanks for letting me know, will do that in the future & thx for that fast update, works like a charm!
Hi arkonstein, I see you are new, for notify of new versions please use Flag package out-of-date button, pkgbuild just updated
There is a new version out there. Could you please update the package?
The problem must be distro specific @toerb. I've been using 1.17.8 for awhile and haven't had any problems. However I run CachyOS, which is an optimized version of Arch, so it's always up to date with the latest software.
Can confirm what toerb says about 1.17.8 - this version is broken and will not read any discs for me. Downgrading to 1.17.7 fixed the problem, this works fine.
There seem to be problems with new users starting at 1.17.8: https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=35703
This now depends on libavcodec.so so when it needs to be rebuilded against new ffmpeg version you are forced to uninstall first otherwise the update will be blocked
I was getting an error while launching, "NO_ANSWER_FROM_MAKEMKVCON".
Running from terminal gave:
/usr/bin/makemkvcon: error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.60: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
libavcodec has been upgraded recently. Re-installing makemkv fixes it
@boarim You’ll find the answer to your question on the upstream website: https://www.makemkv.com/bdjava/
