MakeMKV

• Blu-ray

Great software. Use it. :)

• makemkvcon man page

See: http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1053 for key.

I wrote a man page for the CLI app (makemkvcon) that is available for download here or you can browse the HTML version here

See http://www.makemkv.com/developers/usage.txt for CLI instructions.

Your API key needs to be set in ~/.MakeMKV/settings.conf

app_Key = "app-key-123"

To backup first optical drive into directory “test”:

makemkvcon backup --decrypt disc:0 test

That will decrypt and dump the entire disc, in original M2TS format.

Backup main titles to MKV

Note that it won't take a symlink to the block device.

makemkvcon mkv dev:/dev/sr0 all .

Another option:

makemkvcon mkv disc:0 all .

You can use MakeMKV's decryption libraries directly with other apps by setting environment variables to use it for playback:

LIBAACS_PATH=libmmbd LIBBDPLUS_PATH=libmmbd
