So I changed the date and time via the CMD Line and I can currently rip DVDs. The new beta key above expires later this month, after which Mike will update the message linked above to have the new key. I checked the BIOS Date and it was still March 15th were I set it but doing a 'date' command with the CMD Line showed the actual current time. The key in the download expired at the end of May. You can always download the latest version from that will reset the expiration date. I shutdown my Vortexbox and changed my system time at start-up and it shows that new older date/time in the GUI Window when the ripper initializes, but right before the actual ripping starts it shows the actual current time and the rip fails out with the Key Expired error. Program is time-limited - it will stop functioning after 60 days. Lastly note that changing the system time in the BIOS might not work but doing the CMD Line does work for sure. The second line (hat tip MarkDan) prevents the Name Search via the offline IP Address that causes the ripping script to fail. Also the date and time are bracketed by the ' grave mark and not quotation marks. NOTE: one does an ENTER/Return at the end of each line (last time I typed Return somebody kept typing in the word 'return'). This will set the date of the Vortexbox back to 2AM on March 20th when the Key is still good for the current MakeMKV version. Please download the latest version or enter a registration key to continue using the current version.' and the new MakeMKV Key has still not been issues yet, try changing the date and time from the CMD Line: If your are getting this error 'This application version is to old. ago This happens with the Beta Keys every so often where one expires and the new one hasn't been posted. ' In the past this has meant the Beta one was using was expired and the latest version needed to be pulled down from the REPO with a new 30 day user key. Key was supposed to be valid until end of May, seems like it was deactivated a day early. Please download the latest version or enter a registration key to continue using the current version. ' Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:READ OF SCRAMBLED SECTOR WITHOUT AUTHENTICATION' occurred while reading 'DVD+R-DL HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GH40L RB02' at offset '1048576' ' And if it works for me, I will post it up to the Wiki for everybody.Īnd yes, I know I can buy a KEY from MakeMKV to instantly make it work again, but I am waiting to get a reply to one of my questions over on MakeMKV plus it looks like the DVD I am ripping might need a new version of MakeMVK to rip this DVD. Does anybody have the procedures/instructions for using the CMD Line to actually pull this down from MakeMKV? If so, I would love to try it. The latest version does not come down from the REPO using the Upgrade Button in the GUI or by CMD Line dnf update -y. But there are fewer times he has to change things to stay ahead of copy protection, so new versions aren't as frequent. For a long time, beta versions did not stay 'new' long enough for their key to expire, before Mike updated them. I can't offer any solution, but I'm hoping to bypass it if I can find a copy of the permanent key I used on my old PC.I can't rip anymore DVDs because it seems the Beta MakeMKV version on my 2.4 Vortexbox is past the 30 day Beta and needs a new version/update. Mike updates the key found within a day or two of a beta key expiring. I have exactly the same problem after installing MakeMKV on a new PC. The MKV format can store multiple video/audio tracks with all meta-information and preserve chapters. It converts the video clips from the proprietary (and usually encrypted) disc into a set of MKV files, preserving most information but not changing it in any way.

Upon reopening the app i can get to the Help and About section. MakeMKV is a format converter, otherwise called 'transcoder'. If i had hit OK instead of register it closes the application. Please restart the application for changes to take effect' Once i restart the app then it says 'temporary key has expired.' etc. Register i can add the key again and it says: 'Thank you. or enter a registration key to continue using the current version.' Hit OK or Register.

Please restart application' Hit OK button and the following popup happens 'this application is too old. You need to send a proper header to use the API. cache (int): Next timestamp this website checks for a new key. keydate (int): Unix timestamp of the first moment the key is expired.

The same error appears: 'Temporary key has expired and was removed. The JSON, XML and text variant contain these fields: date (int): Unix timestamp of your request. In the end I have uninstalled/installed the latest Windows version Tried various things and tried various registrations. I have the same problem as of this morning.
