Generally, the MKV format can store multiple video\/audio tracks with all meta-information and preserve chapters. <\/p>\n<p >Step 1. To rip your Blu-ray, put the disc in your Blu-Ray drive and open MakeMKV, the <strong>Blu-ray to H.265 MKV Converter<\/strong>. After a moment, a big Blu-Ray drive icon will appear. Click this to scan the titles on your disc.\u00a0Once MakeMKV is done scanning for titles, you\u00a0will notice a list of them in the left-hand panel of the app. Choose which titles you want to rip here. This list will include special features, deleted scenes, and anything else on the disc.<\/p>\n<p >Step 2. Next, on the right side of the window, choose the folder where you\u00a0would like to place the MKV file, which\u00a0should be on a hard drive that has plenty of free space. You can see an estimate of how big the file should be in the Info section, but assume that you\u00a0are going to offer\u00a0an extra 20+ GB or so just in case.
