very big content

[paperosolitario]

Hi
today I tried to create a mkv file from a bluray disc on my Mac; the problem is it returns a lot of files, called 20 or 21, of about 22 Gb each one; when I select the button to start 'conversion' the program correctly says there is no sufficient space on my mac; I don't know what is the content of those big files, I don't know if I have to select all of them (with the problem reported) or I can select one for all.
can you help?

Bluray files are BIG. A 24-minute anime episode (which are generally relatively clean video and compress well) can easily exceed 4GB, and a lot of movies will be over 30GB (largest I've had was 42GB). Additionally, a BD can have different versions of a movie assembled out of scenes on the disk, so the total size of possible files exceeds the real size of the disk itself. A "director's cut" could contain all the same scenes as the release version, with others spliced in in various places, though something known as "seemless branching".

If you know which title has the version you want, you can select JUST that title to be extracted. But, if you do not, extracting all and watching them is the most common way to determine what you want to hang on to.

Your best bet is to add storage to your system. You should have at least 100GB free working space if you intend to rip BDs.

On my mac 647,5 gb free

You do not have to extract all the titles at once, although, with 647gb of space, you should be able to do it.

It is possible the disk has many "fake" titles, to confuse matters. If you search internet for the movie name with the word "ripping", you may find messages that say which title is the real one for the disk you have.
