MakeMKV offers a free beta that works for 30 days, but that’s a little misleading.

MakeMKV: This application, available for both Windows and macOS, rips your Blu-Rays to an MKV file. That’s it.

If you want to burn your own Blu-Ray discs, you’ll need a drive that can read and write to blank Blu-Rays, but we’ll assume you just want to store them on your hard drive. Fortunately, you can get them online for less than $60.

However, you’ll need a Blu-Ray reader in order to rip your Blu-Ray discs (obviously). If your computer came with any disc drive at all, it was probably a DVD drive. Before you begin, make sure you have installed the following: I also tried a rather fast-decoding Blu Ray movie and it didn't appear to read any faster than the original decoding.You’ll need a few tools in order to start ripping your Blu-Ray collection. It's fastest speed at one point was 1.4x. But even so, the single layer DVD read at a miserly. And worse, the studio intentionally put a corrupted VOB in the form of an Extra, so that I had to set the Video minimum length to 1,500 seconds to ignore everything shorter than 25 minutes, which left me with the the actual movie. I then used MakeMKV on the DVD, 'The Time Traveler's Wife': my drive couldn't read past the index and refused to load the DVD. To test the speed control, I modified the Registry and set the speed to a default of '0=99'. What did you use to determine the max speed of your drive for the various media types? I'd like to help folks learn to set some speed values that might help them get better performance out of a portable USB-attached Blu Ray drive. I think the drive can read faster than it does, so the drive speed control interests me a great deal. I have a USB-attached (USB3) Blu Ray player (see stats below) running on Windows 10 Professional, and I'm very interested how I can max out the speed.
