Hey folks,
I try to get autorippr running. But I get the following output:

python autorippr.py --rip --debug
2017-11-19 11:04:46 - Rip - DEBUG - Ripping initialised
2017-11-19 11:04:46 - Rip - DEBUG - Checking for DVDs
2017-11-19 11:04:49 - Makemkv - ERROR - MakeMKV encountered the following error: 
2017-11-19 11:04:49 - Makemkv - ERROR - 
Redirecting output to ‘wget-log.20’.

Redirecting output to ‘wget-log.21’.

2017-11-19 11:04:49 - Rip - DEBUG - 0 DVD(s) found
2017-11-19 11:04:49 - Rip - INFO - Could not find any DVDs in drive list

The log files are empty.
Using the MakeMKV GUI every thing works perfectly.

Do you have any hints for me?

Good day.

Had the same issue; turned out to be permissions on /dev/sr0, running autorippr as root solved my issue. Running "makemkvcon -r info" should like media in your DVD/Blu-ray drive.

Good luck

Hi,
unfortunately running the script as root doesn't help in case.
any other suggestions would be warmly welcome!
cheers

apperently it has to do with newer versions of wget that produce an error of the kind (Redirecting output to ‘wget-log.4.):

$ makemkvcon -r info disc:-l
MSG:1005,0,1,"MakeMKV v1.12.0 linux(x64-release) started","%1 started","MakeMKV v1.12.0 linux(x64-release)"

Redirecting output to ‘wget-log.4’.

Same issue - I can find the dvd via makemkvcon -r info or makemkvcon info dev:/dev/sr0, but autorippr says "0 dvds found". Running makemkv via X11 works fine.
