A modest 4K UHD Blu-ray collection can eat space on a storage drive very quickly you may want to invest in high-capacity hard-disk drives (think 8TB or more) if you're a big movie and TV buff. Image: PCWorldĪnd you do want to pay attention to file size-even though MKV files shrink the disc files by about 40 percent, UHD discs can hold as much as 100GB of data. MakeMKV has a simple, straightforward interface. You can ditch elements like extra language tracks or the trailers for a smaller file size. After that, ripping is just a matter of popping in a disc, waiting for MakeMKV to read the files, and then choosing which segments to export to MKV. You may also want to go into the settings to change the output folder. Once your Blu-ray drive is set to go, download MakeMKV, install it on your PC, and then activate it using the most current license key. If you don't see your drive listed, you'll have to do some online searching to figure out its capabilities and compatibility with MakeMKV. The MakeMKV forum thread on UHD Drives gives more details on recommended Blu-Ray drives and instructions on how to flash their firmware. Some existing 4K UHD drives can have its firmware flashed to allow ripping-otherwise, you'll have to buy a standard Blu-ray drive to enable reading of 4K discs.
To get started, you'll need a compatible Blu-ray drive and the MakeMKV software.
