New to Blu-Ray ripping and need help

#1 Post by KingGojira1954 » Sun Jul 28, 2024 3:08 am

Hello everyone. Just got registered on here as I'm new to ripping my Blu-rays using MakeMKV. I own an LG BP50NB40 Bu-ray drive and it has been working pretty decently for me as I have been trying to digitize my Dragon Ball Blu-ray collection. However, I am running into an issue where some of my Discs are not reading in my drive. I thought that it was my discs but it seems that they read just fine in my PS5 with normal playback. I read on here that some drives have issues with some discs and I'm thinking that this might be my issue. Is there anyone that can recommend some good external Blu-ray drives for me? I read that Pioneer drives are pretty good? Honestly not sure what route to go but would like to continue my journey as I've made it a good ways through my collection. For reference I am based in the US (Since I would assume that some drives are region based and whatnot)

Thanks!

Pioneer drives are considered the best these days. Your best bet to get one with firmware that supports LibreDrive is to buy from a seller in your region.

In the USA, that's Billycar11.
