Is MakeMKV the best tool - Noobie Question (1 Viewer)

[Sigerson]

Hi All,


I have a Noobie Question. I have started the long process of ripping DVD’s & Blu-Rays using MakeMKV to install on a Plex Media Server on a Mac (OS X). But I’m wondering if this is the correct tool for me. Unlike most, I want all the extras, commentaries, deleted scenes, etc. The Blu-ray’s should be 1080P and have HD Sound. Is MakeMKV the right tool for me? Should I use something else or even a different media server? Thanks, one and all, for you advice.

As long as you don't want to compress the files, that is the best tool.

Thanks for your help.

Make MKV is a great tool, but it does not always convert content 100%. My Criterion 'M' DVD is converted, but I can't do the Blu-Ray of the German version, just the included UK English version...

Are you sure there isn't a title set you missed? They often put more than one set of the same material if there is branching, or sometimes if there is a play all option.
