Will an MKV of v1.5 (non-branching '77 crawl, of course) be in order, since the subtitle sync in the BD structure is the only issue with the release?
Making an MKV from the BD is straightforward. You can use mkvtoolnix-gui or makemkv beta. Both are “drag and drop” operations.
I have no doubt as to the simplicity of the operation. I was just curious if an official MKV was to be released, because I’m sure that many people alongside myself would end up putting it in an MKV anyway, for muxing different audio tracks, etc. I just thought I’d ask if it was in the plans. 😄
