    Help: Convert VC-1 encoded disc to usable format

    I wasn't certain where to post this question. My apologies if this is not the correct place.

    I am working on a project in Adobe Premiere and have run into a problem I've not faced before.

    I need a footage from three VC-1 encoded blu-ray discs (I own the discs). VC-1 is a problem-child codec.

    Typically, I will rip whatever I need from a disc as a lossless mkv, then use ffmpeg (of which I am well-versed) to change that mkv to a lossless mp4 -- which Premiere can import. Occasionally I will use makemkv to extract whatever I need from a disc, then use ffmpeg to do the container change to mp4.

    Fab, of course can rip/extract/copy/etc. what I need to a mkv -- it is a VC-1. Unfortunately, ffmpeg cannot convert these VC-1 encoded mkvs.

    Using Fab to convert what I need to mp4 -- mp4 theatrical and the highest possible encoding quality -- is not lossless. For eventual QC acceptance, I need it to be as near lossless as possible.

    I thought maybe someone here might be able to help out/has faced this issue before.

    Does anyone know how to convert VC-1 to a lossless format that can be imported to Adobe Premiere?
