I am using EAC3TO 3.34 with a GUI and using Staxrip 1.9 with version 3.34.

I am using a bluray ISO file which I have ripped and want to encode to a smaller MKV file.

If I use either software, I am able to choose the playlist I want to perform work on and then I select only the video portion, no audio and no subtitle (have tried both ways) and the process stops after a few seconds.

There is no log file generated. The size or playlist or bluray file do not matter.

This same process works on one 2015 Macbook Pro and one 2010 custom desktop, but not on newer 2017 Macbook Pro and 2017 iMac. All these computers are running Windows 10 natively via bootcamp.

If I change the output from MKV to h264, the process completes, but not vice versa.

Copy of status window is below and last line is the last status print out at 1% with no further progress even after hours.

Can anyone advise how to extract a bluray playlist to MKV given this issue? I have tried every version of EAC3TO over the last 1 year with the same results.
