Put your disc in and hit the big button in MakeMKV.

Use MakeMKV to turn your disc into a lossless MKV file

I personally also edit the 'Default selection rule' sometimes if I wanna do something special like pick multiple english tracks (because of audio commentary), but the default is fine usually.

Streams in that language (audio, subtitles etc) will automatically be picked then. Under Language, pick your preferred Language.

Also in settings, under the Video tab select SemiAuto and a destination with lots of room.

This will turn DTS-HD streams (that not many encoders can read properly) into FLAC streams (which are still lossless but many encoders can read properly) In Settings, enable Expert Mode and set the default profile to FLAC.MakeMKV and all its functionality is free as long as it's in beta.

All the stuff you find online 'lying around' is in bad quality and not the way you want it You want to stream the stuff to your phone from anywhere You want a nice physical collection, but you don't want to get up at 3am out of your nice and comfy bed to swap discs You wanna support the companies by buying their DVDs / Blu-Rays So why do you wanna do this? There are many reasons! Sometimes there are very specific cases which are just too many and too annoying to write about (like when I put the subtitles from a DVD version of a TV show into the 1080 Blu-Ray version by upscaling the DVD subtitles and changing the framerate) etc. This will just go through the stuff I use in general. I still use Plex, so almost everything I do is to satisfy Plex. However, that old post still might be more educational as it has screenshots and I explain more.īut afterall, it is called 'How I Rip DVDs and Blu-Rays'. This is mostly just gonna be from memory, and without screenshots, because I can't stand how outdated the information in my old post is. How I Rip My DVDs and Blu-Rays Wed, 20:14
