I don't believe it for a second. The reputation of RedFox wood be severely damaged if not ruined. I'm also waiting on valid proof of such an accusation to back up that claim.
@ddjmagic Mike actually did say that and I am extremely disappointed , he knows better , I guess he is just jealous that we have a way of our own now. Some people just cant handle the fact that we are the best.
IMHO, the bolded part is all that really needs to be said on the matter. If the situation were the other way around, where MakeMKV could rip titles that AnyDVD can't rip, then the situation might be different. It's possible that Mike was referencing the initial AnyDVD implementation that could import and make use of the leaked keys, but only he can clarify what he wrote and I would encourage him to do so (I had been considering finally making a donation to MakeMKV, but may reconsider that depending on how this shakes out). I'm just happy there are solutions for ripping UHD Blurays.If RedFox is doing it, then how come multiple users report that AnyDVD is able to do titles that MakeMKV isn't able to? Explain that...

I take all of this BS with a grain of salt that said Redfox has always been the best product out there and I will keep on using it and supporting the new project.We have more class than that. Why should anyone have to come down to his level and even dispute it, if that's what you want to believe go ahead. I have more important things on my mind than what some jealous insignificant small time developer has to say. If it bothers you so much ask Mike. He is the one that wants all the glory. Did he discover the friendly drives, no, did he use the VUKs that were out there on the net. You have to ask him. I am done with this crap. I used to respect him, but thats gone.
Are there some examples of this that could be posted? Curious myself.
I apologize if these questions were answered here and I did not see them. I read through this thread but am still a bit confused:
1. originally I needed to create a file with keys and place it in a directory for AnyDVD to process, is that no longer the case?
2. Do I need to know the key ahead of time anymore?
3. Is there a documented list of supported discs?

Ooh did you DLAD, post link please ^^. Me wanna read your venting
This comment is a general one and not directed at you specifically, Balthazar2k4...
Pretty big claim but is there actually any proof? It's really not that hard to believe that they could be independently handling things simultaneously. It would not be the first time it happened. After Arusoft releases their software other developers start digging into things and find holes. People sending info, data, logs for the same discs to both developers at the same time. It's not shocking that support for discs would be timed similarly. It's not like RedFox developers never managed to find a way around AACS 1.0, BD+, Cinavia, etc. They aren't bumbling fools. Could Arusoft make the claim that Mike Chen stole ideas and such from them? You see where I'm going with this? This story is a nice headline but can it be substantiated? Yes, I'm asking a valid and legit question here.
I've been a supporter of Mike Chen & MakeMKV for a long long time but I'm disappointed in the approach to this "situation" and the way the accusations have been tossed out. Now, I already know that some people will automatically say that since I used to be a Moderator for Slysoft - an unpaid volunteer, at that! - that I cannot possibly be unbiased. Bulls--t. You don't know me and I would be questioning this if it was Mike Chen making the claims against DVDFab. I am a very strong believer in logic, facts, proof, evidence, etc.
Hah nice one, and they still argue your point. BTW: https://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=17104&p=60904&hilit=anydvd+uhd+key#p60904 Last post, that's a joke. "Probably just a bad setup with hashed key". Yeah sure, redfox developers are incapable fools that don't know the decrypting business.
And i'm santa clause!
I saw that sometime yesterday or last night. It was a deflection. Blaming the user. Ahem. Not impressed. Nonetheless, the big picture here is that brouhahas like this do no one any good. The goal is Fair Use and protecting our investments. Instead this is infighting. Waste of time and energy.

https://forum.redfox.bz/threads/anydvd-uhd-status.74435/page-25#post-483980 is just one of them. Former moderator too, i'll take his word over mike's
1. Correct, obsolete. That setting in AnyDVD has been removed too. So you couldn't add it even if you wanted too
2. No, though if a title doesn't work you will need to have some patience. UHD support is experimental at this stage
3. Not on these forums
