No longer useful

In MakeMKV, in "View", "Preferences" and Integration you can enable builtin system dll integration.
If apps are not listed, just enable System32 (and SysWOW64 for 32bit app on 64bit system) it work.

Hi!

Just wanted to let you know that the operation of copying (or linking to) the libmmbd64.dll file inside the Handbrake folder does not seem to work anymore.

This is my first time trying to set it up, so I might be missing something. I thought I would flag it.

Cheers

It's a very old script, 6 or 7 years. Since, I no more use Windows for personal use.
It use mklink windows command for add link instead of copy dll to some libbdplus/aacs compatible app. With this, like symlink in *nix system, you can update makemkv without copy new dll to any app folder.

EDIT @Prodeguerriero
In MakeMKV, in "View", "Preferences" and Integration you can enable builtin system dll integration. Handbrake not listed but just enable System32 (and SysWOW64 for 32bit app on 64bit system) it work, I tested.

Nice, I will give it a go then :)

Just coping it works for me, but you might need libacss.dll
