need a recommendation for blu-ray ripping software.

[thehardwarehacker]

hey all. Im looking for recommendations for a software that can rip blu-rays to my PC. i had been using makemkv up till now, but the web page for it has gone belly up, and my evaluation period for it has ended, so its no longer usable. if it possible, i would like this solution to be open source, but if i need to go paid closed i will. that said i would say my budget for this is about 60USD. one of the features i liked about makemkv, is that i could go into the disc itself, select specific episodes of shows, what kind of audio i desire (in my case ether eng. or jap. dub.) and whether i want sub titles or not.

Bit more expensive than your budget unless you only want 1 year sub?  anydvd.  https://www.redfox.bz/en/anydvdhd.html

Maybe DVDfab I havent really used it myself but its around the $60 price range.

 

I would nt just give up on Makemkv due to the site going down, its the second time its happend this year.

 

But for the best of the best decryption Anydvd hd is the way to go. Always updating its decryption.

Personally the only 2 DVD / BluRay ripping software programs I trust to work fairly well are either RedFox (formerly Slysoft) or DVDFab.

I've used DVDFab, AnyDVD, and MakeMKV. For discs where there are multiple episodes (such as an anime series), MakeMKV I find to be the easiest of the bunch. If you just want to play Blu Ray directly, it's not quite as easy.

 

Honestly, given the poor state of Blu Ray (for the past 12 years), just choose what you thibk will be supported longest.
