Lossless quality, I have no desire to encode my BluRay movies

No longer need to worry about forced subtitles, something that was a little more problematic using alternative methods (mkv) Even with HDDs getting cheaper this is still a substantial savings given the average BluRay disc can be anywhere from 20-45GB.

on a disc and by only doing the main movie it can save anywhere from 10-35% in HDD space. Main Movie only, I have no need for all the extras, features, etc.

The reason why I use Clown_BD over other methods:

It takes about 35 minutes to rip the movie to my PC and then another 10-15 minutes to finally transfer the movie over to my WHS. I rip to my PC and then when done I di a quick check of the rip before copying over to my WHS. I rip using AnyDVD + Clown_BD, grabbing only the main movie. It's pretty awesome, but you need to have a Dune player.Īnyways, I hope these threads will be useful to others. You'll see what I mean when you rip your ISO and try to play it.Ĩ.) After ripping the ISOs and getting them onto my NAS, I'm using Zappiti as my video jukebox on my Dune.

Then your software will read it like it reads an actual BD. BTW, if you don't know what it means to 'mount' your file it basically means to trick your PC into thinking that it has another media drive. You simply right click on the file and 'mount' it. I use SlySoft's VirtualCloneDrive for this. I suggest you check both out for yourself and see which you like better.ħ.) If you rip to ISO, just know now that your PC software such as Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra 11 will not read them unless you 'mount' them first. That's my opinion, others really like it. However, I find Handbrake has more options and runs a little faster. It's pretty easy to use as well.Ħ.) MakeMKV - It is similar to handbrake. It's also useful for converting your ISO files to something compatible with your Iphone/Ipad. Dbone's guide to ripping box setsĥ.) Handbrake - free software. Again, thanks to dbone1026 who wrote a guide. I'm using handbrake (which nows supports BD). Otherwise, you need to use some other software. BD box sets can be ripped into individual episodes using Clown_BD above.

You can find out how to use it thanks to dbone1026 dbone's clown_bd user guide. I ran it through Clown_BD and it generated an ISO of only 13GB. It generated an ISO of approximately 43GB. For example, I ran Disney's Bambi through IMGBRN. This means your movie plays much faster from your content streamer (from start) and cuts down the size by as much as 70%. It also strips out the previews, FBI warning, extra features, etc. I've found it best to rip the movies with this program directly to my PC and then to transfer to my NAS. The program takes forever and a day and sometimes stalls. How many of us can afford 8TB solutions? Yeah, thought the number was low.ģ.) Clown_BD - This program requires you to download the other programs with it, including the aforementioned IMGBRN. This takes up about 40-50 GBs per average BD. It burns a 1 to 1 image from your BD, meaning you get all the previews, the ability to choose scene, extra features, etc. Did I mention it is free? Unfortunately, budget and space prevented me from simply using this program. Very easy interface and it works quickly. You simply tell the program where to burn your file and then hit one button. And it took longer than IMGBRN.Ģ.) IMGBRN - Great program. UPDATE: I ran ANYDVD Ripper to rip an ISO and it came out the same as IMGBRN (did not remove the previews, even though that box was checked). You just have to pony up for this program. As usual, such protections mean little to thieves but prevent those of us who paid for our product from using it in the manner we desire. So that's what I decided to do.ġ.) AnyDVD HD - You absolutely need something to strip the protection so you can rip the BR. The consensus from the first thread was that I should rip my BR's to an ISO file. Īnyways, I've setup my NAS and Dune Media Player so now I can share my own experience. A few weeks ago, I started a thread about how I should go about ripping BR.
