I did all three John Wick movies from 4K UHD without a hitch.

Transcoding is usually around 45 minutes or so but the file sizes are massive and subtitles are hit and miss.įor what it's worth, I haven't experienced the issues with Lionsgate films others have. Handbrake does a HORRIBLE job with 4K UHD so I use a different program for those. Depending on the file, the transcode can take 2:1 or 3:1 conversion time. I select the file(s) I want and as Jackie Gleason said.'Away we go!' Usually about 45 minutes or so (less if it's a DVD, a little more if it's a 4K UHD disc) the mkv file is waiting for me.įrom there, I just fire up Handbrake for all files EXCEPT 4K UHD, select the mkv files I want to transcode and in what order, point them where I want to go and press Start. I just open my external 4K-compatible drive, insert the disk and run mkv (latest version). Maybe I'm just lucky, but I don't have to do the dance of a thousand coding languages when using makemkv and Handbrake. Thanks in advanced for any proper instructions on how to make this work on my iMac. I'm not to comfortable with messing around on my Mac, however if it was a PC, well, I don't own a pc anymore and haven't since 2010. I've been trying to ask for step by step directions to make this process easier. So.with the first quote, On my iMac, where do I find the libmmbd, what do I rename it to, where do I put the newly renamed file? From the second quote, where would I find an unsigned, unsandboxed, unhardened libmmbd, and where would the proper location be? I would like to do the same with Blurays. 2/macosx/) which when installed, allows me to convert protected DVD's from within Handbrake. So, at least in theory, this should work.įor starters, I don't use VLC, I did however find the libdvdcss-1.4.2.pkg on their website (. The libmmbd (from unsigned, unsandboxed, unhardened and otherwise dangerous MakeMKV) still can be used by sandboxed/hardened applications, if it is copied to a proper location.
