We've listed above the items you need, but here are more details:Ī DVD or Blu-ray disc drive on your computer - You won’t be ripping anything without one. If your computer lacks the proper disc drive, an external DVD or good Blu-ray drive can be purchased for as little as $25.Įnough storage on a hard drive to save the ripped files - Blu-rays can take up a large amount of storage, so we recommend you have 30GB-60GB of free hard drive space if you’re looking to rip one.Ī program to rip the files - We’ll be using MakeMKV in this guide, which is available for both Windows and MacOS.Ī program to transcode the file after it’s ripped - We recommend Handbrake, which is also available for both Windows and MacOS. Whether you’re using Windows or MacOS or ripping a Blu-ray or a DVD, the process is identical for all of them. Step 1: Download and install MakeMKV, and open the application once completed. Step 2: The app will say “MakeMKV BETA” at the top - ignore this and insert your DVD or Blu-ray into the optical drive. Step 3: Once the program recognizes your disc, click the big disc drive icon to begin the ripping procedure. Theoretically, this process could also remove copyright protections from a disc, but again, that’s not something we condone or encourage.
