Re: Is converting disc content to mkv files really necessary

@Trespasser Hi! I'm sure there's a good reason why this is not offered for DVDs For one thing (That has been pointed out several times before)the Matroska/.MKV container cannot presently process DVD menus... I'll have to do some reading on the subject, but I did not know that. Thanks for the info, ...

Re: Is converting disc content to mkv files really necessary

Thank you SiliconKid and Smithcraft for your replies. As I stated in my first post in this thread, I use Linux (more precisely Ubuntu), so AnyDVD is not an option, but thanks anyway. It would be nice to rip a DVD with MakeMKV then simply burn the resulting files (vobs, etc) to disc. This option is n...

It would be nice to have that same feature for DVDs as well. I don't have, nor plan to get, a Blueray Disc player (though I suppose it's inevitable...someday. :wink: ).

Later....

Is converting disc content to mkv files really necessary?

Mike, An option to dump the actual unencrypted Disc structure (vobs, etc.), instead of converting them to mkv files, for both DVDs and Blueray Discs, would be nice. The option could be placed at the stage where you're allowed to deselect subtitles and other languages, just before you click MakeMKV. ...

Re: Install only Makemkvcon?

No such thing as checkinstall in CentOS 6.0 at present, so I saved each individual part of the MakeMKV install process, did a reinstall via CloneZilla, manually moved each part to their respective place, created a launcher in alacarte (Main Menu), clicked it, and MakeMKV opened right up.

Re: Install only Makemkvcon?

I just discovered that if you install the necessary build packages for MakeMKV plus install checkinstall as well the resulting (in my case) deb packages produced will allow you to install MakeMKV to a fresh install of your OS without the build packages (save about 125 mbs of disc space). You will ne...

Re: Install only Makemkvcon?

Is there a way to only build and install makemkvcon and not have to install QT and the GUI MakeMKV? Yes, just disable makemkv target in makefile. You will still need to rebuild libraries, but no QT is required. Excuse me for ask, Mike, but where exactly do we disable makemkv target in the makefile?...
