Posted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:14 pm
so i just read that you can back up the entire disk, does it make it into an .iso?? also is the full disk back up more space than the mkv version?? what is the difference

Yes.also is the full disk back up more space than the mkv version??
At the very least, a small difference would occur regarding the AACS copy protection, that doesn't get incorporated into any .MKV file.what is the difference
Search for a program called "xin1generator", it can create one MKV with all three versions of the film - something I hope to see one day in MakeMKV. I have all three versions of Avatar, with the HD audio, in one 38GB file.Crazy Marty wrote:Actually, using "backup" instead of "copy titles" could save a lot of space!
For instance, the Avatar Collector's Edition 1st BD can show you 3 different versions of the full movie: 1 with no scenes deleted; 1 with *some* scenes deleted; the last with *more* scenes deleted (the theatrical version). It's done by using 3 separate mpls (playlist) files (all chapters in the 1st, some missing from the 2nd, and more missing from the 3rd), so "copy titles" will get you *3* *separate* *30GB+* movies -- from a disc that only holds 50GB total.

Hey, that's great -- and since the source is available under the MIT license, I believe it would be just fine to use it within makemkv!
