I'm running Ubuntu on a PS3, and would like to try out makemkv, but the binary only ships with i386 and amd64 architectures. Are there any plans to port it to the PS3's native ppc64 platform?
Thanks

Unfortunately, there is no point to do so. PS3 hypervisor limits access to the Blu-ray drive so certain important information (volume id) can't be read from the disc. That makes decryption impossible. There is no known hypervisor hack yet so blu-ray drive in ps3 is somewhat unusable.
