| Good Day,
I tried ribbot and obtained all the necessary attachments yet it fails to work or create a file. I think MAKEMKV worked well but i still ended up with a 27gig mkv file quality superb yet no 5.1 surround or anyform of digital sound. The size i think is due to multiple langauges included is there a way to just selct english. Any other suggestions of what to use will be welcome thank you.  | ||||

Did you choose audio track in makemkv?
But makemkv might not work perfect with all blu-ray, then you can instead try clown_bd. | ||||

Would be nice to know which guide you are following then may be I can help a bit. With out knowing what you are doing it's hard to identify the problem.
What format is the audio in & which software are you trying to play the file in. Some of the freeware stuff is unable to play e-AC3 MPC for one, perhaps with some additional tweaking it can but I have not explored this I down convert e-AC3 to AC3. I've been using Ripbot the past few days to convert some of HD content for use on my HTPC and i'm loving it, once i get it set up properly that is :D . 1. Use DVDFab HD Decrypter to rip movie. 2. eac3to And More GUI only to conver movie to MKV & to convert e-ac3 audio to AC3 3. Use supRead to convert subtitles to srt subtitles. 4. Use ripbot to convert files to 1080P MKV. The conversion process takes a while just under 4 hrs for a two passes. At about 2gig per hour i can't see any perceived quality loss on my 52" TV. | ||||

| Dragon Keeper,
In terms of guides i stick to simple and fast method being new to HD Arena I were trying out a few things it seems you go through a relatively huge process. 1. Rip anydvdhd "the one solution that works everytime" 2. MakeMkv one time run after that i got the MKV file to play on my WDHD "Western Digital" player in full 1080p recently did the firmware update as well. I realized there are a number people converting to all sorts of formats for play stations and so on. So in terms of the 2 step process above I get excellent picture quality. Baldrick pointed out i need to check that i select the correct sound track which i hope will solve the surround problem. |
