Ok, so now i've got a full backup of a 3D-blurays.
It is not an ISO but a backup just as it is created by makemkv.
How should i proceed if i wanted to rip just the main title with some additional language audio and subtitles from that backup?
I thought i simply could load that backup into makemkv and then edit the movie just as i would do do with a physical BluRay disk that is loaded into makemkv.
But unless i miss something there is no way to load the backup into makemkv.

Any hint is very much appreciated

You have to select "Open files manually" and then select the index.bdmv file inside of the bdmv folder

Many thanx,
i don't know if it ever would have occurred to me to try something like the index.bdmv file

You’re correct that MakeMKV doesn’t provide an option to load backups directly like it would from a physical disc. Here’s a workaround to extract the main title and your preferred audio/subtitle tracks from a backup:

1. Locate the Main Movie File: In the backup folder created by MakeMKV, navigate to the STREAM folder (usually found within the BDMV directory). Here, you’ll find all the video files (.m2ts format) that make up the content of the Blu-ray.

2. Identify the Main Movie: Look for the largest .m2ts file, which typically represents the main title. You can use a tool like BDInfo to analyze the folder structure and identify the exact playlist (MPLS) file for the main movie if it’s split across multiple files.

3. Open Files with MakeMKV: Once you’ve identified the main movie file or playlist, open it directly in MakeMKV:

Launch MakeMKV.

Go to File > Open Files and navigate to the backup folder.

Select the appropriate .mpls file (often located in the PLAYLIST folder), which corresponds to the main movie.

4. Select Audio and Subtitles: Once loaded in MakeMKV, you should be able to select the main title and specify which audio and subtitle tracks you want, just as you would from a physical Blu-ray disc.

5. Rip to MKV: Start the ripping process, and MakeMKV will create an MKV file containing the main title with your selected audio and subtitle tracks.

There are a few alternatives to MakeMKV that can handle Blu-ray backups and give you control over the main title, audio, and subtitle selections like HandBrake (with Libdvdcss), DumboFab Blu-ray Ripper.

You want to open the index file not an mpls

To the person controlling the ai why if you don't know something just don't help
Ai really is ruining community tech support the crap it puts together and makes up is just wrong
In the old days if someone put nice steps together like that it would usually be right now when people look back at this junk half these "helpful" guides will be bad because of ai
