Create ISO Backups
Create ISO Backups
Hello, I like to make full disc backups of all my Blu-rays and DVD's. MakeMKV makes DVD's into ISO files, but Blu-ray's into BDMV folders, which I then have to use something like Keka to turn into an ISO file. ISO's are a bit more convenient for my use and I'd like to skip the conversion step, so I'm wondering if there's a setting in MakeMKV to make Blu-ray's into ISO's directly? I couldn't find anything poking around in the settings.
Re: Create ISO Backups
You're correct. ISOs for DVDs and BDMV folders for blu-rays and UHDs. There's no setting to let MakeMKV create ISOs for blu-rays; you have to use another program to convert.
Re: Create ISO Backups
Is there a way to request the feature for a possible future version, or have the devs already explained why they won't implement it?
Re: Create ISO Backups
Posting on the forum is probably the best way to request the feature be added. If Mike has explained himself on this topic, I'm not aware of it (but there are a lot of posts on this forum that I've never read).

Re: Create ISO Backups
What software is everybody using to make ISO then?
Re: Create ISO Backups
I seem to recall Imgburn being recommended.

The hard part about creating ISOs of blu-rays on macOS is that macOS does not natively support version of filesystem used on blu-rays, UDF.
As Steve Jobs once famously said, blu-ray is a bag of hurt. 15 years later and macOS natively still can't play a blu-ray disc.
