Rip as an m4v/mp4 file as well as mkv

How difficult would it be to implement the option of ripping Blu-Ray/DVD straight to m4v/mp4 for the next version?

Would then save having to convert to m4v/mp4 for all Apple devices.

I would pay for this feature.

Kind regards

Re-encoding is presently out of MakeMKV's scope.

Not to mention that it would slow the process of ripping disks a LOT.

On the Mac, you can use Handbrake to go directly from a DVD to MP4 (Handbrake can handle encrypted DVDs on the mac). Friend of mine does it. Takes forever to process a single disk, where I can rip a whole TV season in the same time.

I can then build a batch file to process the conversion later, when I don't have to worry about the cursor taking a few seconds to move between programs... :)
