Michael McDonald Center Stage Blu-Ray RIP

[wicked]

I purchased the Michael McDonald - Center Stage Blu-Ray and although it seems to RIP OK, the 18GB file has no video content it seems, just audio. Has anyone else had this problem?

Also, when I try to convert the file in HandBRake it says it is not a valid file, as do other applications I use. I have tried re-ripping it but the same problem occurs.

Cheers Steve....

OK nearly 2 years later, I have a new blu-ray drive, new Mac, and STILL this Blu-Ray disc has the same problem when I rip it. Anyone PLEASE have any idea??

Most likely, the video is interlaced VC-1. MakeMKV's rip is good, it's just that VLC and HandBrake have no decoder for interlaced VC-1.

OK I have a PC as well, anyone advise which app on a PC will be able to RIP this into an MP4 file?

RipBot264 should work, though you may have to configure ffdshow to use the Microsoft VC-1 decoder first (not sure whether it's the default).
