How to rip a 4K disc to HD ?

[KeyNo]

My Blu-ray drive will handle 4K discs but my PC monitor won't, how can I rip a 4K disc to a file that's the equivalent of a smaller Blu-ray/HD rip? I can't see anything in the settings, etc but I guess I'm missing something.

I use VLC to play back the MKV files, etc.

Thanks.

This can't be done by MakeMKV.

Once you have ripped the disc using MakeMKV, you would have to use other software to re-encode and convert to SDR.

Ah, I see - thank you.

Would you be able to recommend any suitable software for the job?
