Anybody ever found a hacked version of any “supposed BluRay/UHD rippers” like DVDFab, DumboFab or Leawo that actually worked? I really liked Leawo and got a good copy from TorrentGalaxy but when it attempts to read the BluRay and, I guess, get its information, the software returns an error message and freezes up. The only software I’ve found that’ll handle most everything is MakeMKV but the only thing I don’t like about MakeMKV is no preview option plus sometimes it coughs a furball on regular DVDs.

    I’ve never had a problem with makemkv. I use it for everything. Even paid for a license lol.

    MakeMKV is the only cross platform bluray ripper that I’m aware of that will work with any disc. For DVDs, I normally use Handbrake.

      Nice, that works? Fantastic!

      Note, MakeMKV for Linux has source code available at least, so not fully proprietary.

      Could you make a tutorial post on the exact setup? For NixOS at least VLC itself needs patching
