About MakeMKV
MakeMKV is your one-click solution to convert video that you own
into free and patents-unencumbered format that can be played
everywhere. MakeMKV is a format converter, otherwise called
"transcoder". It converts the video clips from proprietary (and
usually encrypted) disc into a set of MKV files, preserving most
information but not changing it in any way. The MKV format can
store multiple video/audio tracks with all meta-information and
preserve chapters.
Additionally MakeMKV can instantly stream decrypted video
without intermediate conversion to wide range of players, so you
may watch Blu-ray and DVD discs with your favorite player on
your favorite OS or on your favorite device.
NOTE: users of this software must accept the terms of the "End
