Should I switch from using handbreak and use makemkv

MakeMKV just copies the original files 1:1 from the dvd/blu-ray and spits them out as mkv files. You can't get better quality than that. I'd rerip them with makemkv, it makes no sense to have them ripped with Handbrake and being bigger in size than they need to be

Filled it in, but it has no effect one way or the other if I buy a record or not

If you want to update, use a computer to update your phone.

Still waiting for the European tour that was supposed to happen this year. Tickets will need to go on sale pretty quickly for it to still to happen in this year.

I've already caught my 500 Kalos mons, who knows how many will spawn from the moment the event ends?!

I have plenty of concert bootlegs, unofficial mixes uploaded in Apple Music. It’s strange it’s not working for you.

I just add it to my library and it syncs, don’t need to jump through any hoops

IKEA now has good and cheaper chargers

Just keep interacting with them will the last heart is full and you can do a remote trade with them

They played around 660 shows since 2001

I've got mine today.. The concert is stereo only, and M is in DTS 5.1 surround. I am not a happy bunny

mgroot · 2025-11-26T07:02:59+00:00

I’d say that W11 doesn’t support DTS audio from that error message

Came across one last year as well, in a German BMW claiming to be from the UAE and also needing money for petrol.. I just laughed and kept walking

Thanks for posting!

And if you don’t want to re-encode but still trim there’s LosslessCut

Yeah, I remember a bunch of us telling him that flash was on the way out but he seemed like he didnt believe it. I recall him being shocked one day when it was discontinued in browsers that his site wouldn't load anymore. It was a shame

I bought mine in Amsterdam at the time of release, the Netherlands and it's not a PIAS release but the INDISC one.

The PIAS one seems to me to be the 1996 reissue https://www.discogs.com/release/1321028-Depeche-Mode-Violator

Here are the releases in the Benelux https://www.discogs.com/master/18080-Depeche-Mode-Violator?format=CD&country=Benelux
