Settings to get exact rip from DVD to MKV?

fuzzyreets

Hi folks. I think I'm going to start ripping to MKV but I want to know what settings to use to get the best quality available from the DVD rip for audio and video. Thanks.

EDIT: File size not a concern.

mkv.remux is the way to go. Just a passthrough, so don't need to adjust any settings.

That's right. I think i've used that setting before but I'm having a hard time finding that now. Can you assist?

Hi fuzzyreets
On the DVD Ripper page click More > MKV > Profile near the bottom click on the arrow and you will have drop down options to select mkv.remux.

Is that only an option on the newest v8 release? I dont' see it in my v7 release.

Okay I found that in the v8 release. I'll see how that works. I can't see buying another version though. The price of this software is insane.

So the MKV is an exact copy of the material the same as if I ripped to ISO?

New problem. MKV isn't playable on my iPad. How do I fix this? Is mp4 just as good? I can't imagine so. Thanks.
