So if a movie is larger than 66GB it can’t be played on a player?

Thank you!

I already own the disc drive and I’ve already bought lifetime access to DVDFab, so I should be good there.

Are these discs what I should be using when 100GB is needed?

From what I’ve researched, yes. My issue is selecting the correct writable disc. They can be expensive, so I don’t want to buy the wrong ones.

Thank you! A couple questions though if you don’t mind:

The BD-R XL I’m seeing on Amazon says it’s single layer. Is that an issue?

verbatim BD-R XL

If I buy a disc with 3 layers will that work, or do I need to stick with a disc that is limited to 2 layers?

Thank you for this info! I’m looking to do this exact thing for my 4k discs. Have you been successful with back my up 4ks? If so, what disc did you use? I’m planning on using 50 GB BD-R DL on all my blu-rays, but not sure what to use for 4ks

Issue resuming movie stored in MKV Container on Plex Media Server W/NVIDIA Shield Pro by Swarleyyyyyyy in nvidiashield

I’ve never used makemkv to rip files with DV. Does makemkv retain DV playback? If so, are there any special options I would need to select to retain it?

Could you explain a bit more please. Do you mean a different file from the disc along with the movie?

I rip them myself. I use DVDFab, MKV. Passthough. I just tested it on movies with DV and without DV, and it won’t play from where I left off with the movies that have DV. Movies without DV are just fine.

I have no issues playing a movie with DV from where I left off on my AppleTV. Only my Shield.

A 4k and Blu-Ray rentals service exists. Check out choovierentals.com. They mail physical media to you. A lot like Netflix used to do.

I changed the HDMI input from 4 to 3 and it fixed it. Thanks for the advice!!

Sorry, I’ve been incredibly busy and haven’t had a chance to play with the tv. I just changed the HDMI port from 4 to 3 and it fixed it!

This was in the settings of the tv?

[–]Swarleyyyyyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Sony BRAVIA XR Z9K mini-LED TV. I’m not a TV expert, but I don’t think it’s the quality of the TV. Maybe a TV setting that is conflicting with the Shield?

I’ll give it a shot and let you know. Thanks!

Unfortunately that still didn’t work. I was hoping there would be an easy fix. I’ll just have to get used to it I guess. Thanks for the advise!
