HTPC23 4 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I rip my Blu-Rays to hard drive in the BMVD structure so I can manage them easier and use MBT of course. Some movies work just fine but others don't seem to play right. Example - 'The Expendables' starts out fine but then seems to go into the commentary and behind the scenes stuff and not play the actually movie. Example - 'Total Recall (2012)' does the same thing. Seems to start to play the movie and cuts over with director commenting and stuff. It's almost like its playing the wrong AVCHD file or something or not playing them in the correct order. Anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this and have it play the correct file? Also any sites or forums out there with list on how to properly rip certain movies, I use DVDFab and AnyDVD. Thanks!

Luke 37024 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 unfortunately we pass the path to lav filters and we're limited by what it determines to be the main movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2493 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 i don't know why the response to these queries isn't: bdmv is a supported structure but its far from optimal. essentially you'll end up with issues like this. rip the movie and all specials to separate files using makemkv and use the standard file structure. yes you will lose the look and feel of the blu-ray but: a) they're horrible and you're not missing anything there are lots of features within MB that replicate the look and feel of using the disc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTPC23 4 Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Yea I have always heard ripping to bdmv is the best hence why I have done it that way. I would rather not rip to some other format that doesn't get me the same video and sound quality. If I am wrong here please let me know as I don't consider myself an expert or even close by any means on this stuff. Also I could care less about the special feature and stuff, I would really just like to rip the main movie and that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman1991 19 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Using MakeMKV, or some other alternative software, gets you exactly the same video and audio quality, only in a different container. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A8HTPC 38 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) MakeMKV is the best alternative. It only takes the video and audio and puts them into a container. It does not comrpess, or encode the video so you don't get any loss of quality. Depending on the movie I have seen some MKVs be as large as 38GB You can only add one video stream to a MKV but you can have multiple audio streams such as AAC/AC3 DTS DTS-HD TrueHD etc. Edited September 16, 2014 by A8HTPC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2493 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Makemkv rips at 1:1, you can rip all extras, subs and audio tracks. It's a bit more admin up front but worth it IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
