What I linked was a program where you can rip the contents on the blueray disks into a raw mkv container, to then convert to what ever format you so choose, and then you can reburn that onto blank blue ray disks. The program is MakeMKV.īottom Line: blue ray disk cannot be read unless both the hardware (blueray player), and software to read blue rays, are present. 30+ GB each.Īnd yes the program works on both windows and linux. Use this to make rips, and then your can burn the unencrypted content onto blank blue ray disks or just keep the digital copies. No you need software to read from the disks, which are encrypted.
