You should be prompted to restart the ‘makemkv’ app. Once entered, click the ‘OK’ button in the lower-right corner of the window. During the Beta program, the software is free and you can get a key at the website ‘ ’. A window should appear that asks for a registration key or for you to purchase a key. Go to ‘Help’ on the top menu and select ‘Register’. Once ‘makemkv’ is installed, start the app. Sudo apt install makemkv-oss makemkv-bin -y The newest package list should be retrieved form the PPA to allow for installation of the newest available files. If the files are not updated, use the command: Once the PPA is installed, the package list should be automatically updated. Right now, the ‘makemkv’ software is in a beta stage and is free to use. Sudo add-apt-repository ppa:heyarje/makemkv-beta -y It is most likely that the packages are already installed.įor the main software package, we will install a PPA source for the most up-to-date version of ‘makemkv’. Sudo apt install software-properties-common apt-transport-https -y Next, we need to install dependency packages: To start, update your system with the command: A DVD player or burner can only convert DVD discs and not Blu-Ray discs. A Blu-Ray player or burner can also convert DVDs as well. If you plan on converting a Blu-Ray disc, then you need a Blu-Ray player or burner. When each new disc is scanned by ‘makemkv’ it will download a file for bypassing the disc encryption. NOTE: The system with ‘makemkv’ needs a connection to the Internet. The installation of the software is needed to be used to convert the data from the DVD or Blu-Ray to a digital file on the system you are using.
Also, do not share the digital copies as this is illegal as well. The use is strictly for making a digital copy of a disc that you own. NOTE: The use of the software is not meant to promote illegal copying of discs.
Using a special program, the protection can usually be bypassed and the digital copy can be made. The problem with making a digital copy from most discs is that they incorporate some form of protection. Viewing can be done remotely if you make a DLNA Server, as I covered in the article ‘ Home Streaming Server’. For many users, you may have a need to make a digital copy of a DVD or Blu-ray to view on your system.
