3 ways for lossless Blu-ray backup: BD to BD, BD to ISO and BD to MKV
Why bother making a copy of your Blu-ray Disc while you have already got a BD Player or PS3? Most of all, it is difficult to protect an expensive and brittle Blu-ray disc from scratches and worn out due to frequently use. A backup copy will keep original Blu-ray disc safe and clean. Here we pick out and compare 3 lossless Blu-ray backing up methods for beginners that would like to back up Blu-ray collections. Any of them allows for 1080p video and multiple audio and subtitle streams when copying Blu-ray movie. Read on to find a best fit for you.
1. Copy/Burn Blu-ray Disc to a blank BD-R 25GB/50GB What you need: Blu-ray Ripper software, Blu-ray authoring software, Blu-ray burner, blank Blu-ray Disc (BD-25/BD-50), and a computer with 50GB+ free space.
As we know, commercial Blu-ray movies are copy-protected. To copy movie from a copy-protected Blu-ray disc, you’ll need a Blu-ray decrypting tool that can handle AACS and BD+ protections. Bear in mind that not all Blu-ray ripping software do copy Blu-ray contents to hard drive, most of them simply rip Blu-ray movie to HD videos. Here we recommend the “Full Disc Copy” facility of Pavtube Blu-ray Ripperto you. When ripping Blu-ray contents to computer, you’ll also need a Blu-ray Disc drive to read Blu-ray Disc, as DVD-ROM will not read BD at all. Basically, Blu-ray burner/writer can be used as BD-drive. After Blu-ray contents are copied to hard drive, you have to author them to ensure properly playback on Blu-ray player. Freeware tsMuxer and multi-AVCHD can be help. For burning Blu-ray Disc, freeware ImgBurn and shareware Nero 10 are recommended. On a Mac computer you can try Toast Titanium.
Pros:You can make a 1:1 physical Blu-ray copy and play it in Blu-ray players and PS3.
Cons:
1) It costs plenty of time and money. And again you get a brittle Blu-ray disc that is easy to break.
2) The process is complicated. Beginners may fail over and over again before successfully burn a Blu-ray Disc.
3) You may face more complicated situation when copying a 30GB movie--- you have to either compress the BD contents to fit for a 25GB single layer Blu-ray Disc(which is time-consuming), or copy it to a 50GB dual layer Blu-ray Disc which is much more expensive.
4) It’s not good for store and organization. Image when you hunt for a movie in hundreds of Blu-ray discs.
2. Burn a Blu-ray ISO image file that contains everything What you need: Blu-ray Ripper software, Blu-ray ISO creator software, Blu-ray Disc drive, and a computer with 50GB+ free space
Burning a Blu-ray ISO image is much easier than disc to disc backup. Again you’ll need Blu-ray ripper/decrypter software and a BD Drive for hacking and copying Blu-ray contents to computer. If this Blu-ray ripper can copy Blu-ray structure (a BDMV and a CERTIFICATE directory) to hard drive, things will be much easier---just use freeware ImgBurn to create BD ISO image from Blu-ray directories.
Pros:
1) You can get 1:1 backup of Blu-ray Disc. 1080p video and HD audio can be preserved.
2) It costs much less time and money than burning a Blu-ray Disc.
3) The Blu-ray ISO can be easily burned to Blu-ray Disc when it necessary.
Cons: Playing Blu-ray ISO can be troublesome. There are few portable players that support Blu-ray ISO playback. On computer you have to install a virtual BD drive and use specific player like PowerDVD 10 to ensure proper playback. By the way, PowerDVD 10 offered at $75 by Cyberlink.
3. Copy Blu-ray main movie to MKV with everything unchanged. What you need: Pavtube ByteCopy software, Blu-ray Disc drive and a computer.
MKV is a container file format in which there can be many audio, video and subtitles streams, allowing the user to store a complete movie in a single file. Experienced movie fans usually choose MKV format for movie ripping because the MKV format lets them to do lossless backup of their CD, DVD and Blu-ray Discs with desired audio tracks and subtitles. Pavtube ByteCopy is such kind of software that integrated Blu-ray decrypter and MKV maker. The software enables users to crack Blu-ray copy-protections and envelop Blu-ray main movie into a single MKV file with all subtitles and audio streams included. Everything’s the same with Blu-ray Disc except for extras. The software is offered at $42 by Pavtube Studio.
Pros:
1) Lossless backup of Blu-ray main movie, with 1080p video, HD audio, and multi-subtitles preserved.
2) It costs much money than burning Blu-ray ISO, as you don’t have to purchase a player for MKV playback. In fact MKV is widely supported by HD media players: Western Digital TV Live, Seagate Theatre Plus, Popcorn Hour C-200, etc. On computer you can either use free VLC media player and Mplayer for MKV playback, or enable Windows Media Player/Windows Media Center to play MKV by installing free codec packs.
3) MKV videos are easy to organize- as easy as WMV and AVI video. You can add them to Windows Media Center and connect computer to HDTV for enjoying 1080p HD videos.
4) The process is very easy and intuitive. You can complete Blu-ray to MKV backup with 2 clicks only.
Cons:
Generated MKV video includes main movie only, without Blu-ray movie menu.
Referring to Blu-ray backup, everyone has his own hobbyhorse. Just one thing, if you’re hoping to copy your Blu-ray movies with easiest operations and least expense, copying BD to MKV is absolutely your first choice.
P.S.For compressing Blu-ray contents to HD video for home server and ripping Blu-ray movie to iPad, PS3, Xbox, Motorola Xoom, Galaxy Tab, Playbook, iPhone, Atrix 4G, etc, you’re encouraged to try Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper or Pavtube Blu-ray Video Converter Ultimate.

who gives 2 f�Cks what its called . does it really matter? ive never once said i have an iphone 2 3g 3gs or 4 i just say i have an iphone if i am asked. Just hope its true about sprint cause the corporate discount is huge from sprint for me. att and verizon are big discounts nowhere near sprint though and tmobile is the least amount. the only thing that keeps me with att is any mobile to mobile but with sprint i would have the same plan its 10 bucks cheaper and 10% more on the discount. i am loyal to no carrier i go for the best price. I can tell you this though if it isnt a real upgrade like 3g to 3gs my next phone will be blackberry touch (aka bold touch) then i will see you at iphone whatever you want to call it but the newest one convert mts to avi I was more excited about iOs 5 than a new iPhone. I can see one being delayed (even though it hasn't been announced, I consider it delayed given historical release dates) but not both. iOs is pretty much a done deal, it just needs a few tweeks, not a rewrite of the code. ivy00135 - Tue Nov 13, 2012 6:46 pm Post subject: 鴨肉珍 大溝頂阿囉哈滷味 阿英排骨飯 高雄北港蔡米糕 郭家肉粽 高雄酒店經紀 吳寶春麵包店 老莊豆漿店 逐鹿炭火燒肉打狗店 大牛牛肉麵 福記臭豆腐專賣店 東坡鮮肉飯 成男生碗稞肉粽 鳳邑麵線 鳳山鹹米苔目店 鳳山老店水煎包 倆伯羊肉 生源小籠包 志明花生糖專賣店 李家肉圓 高雄酒店經紀 南台春捲浮水魚羹 旗津萬三小吃部 旗津萬二小吃部 北平楊寶寶蒸餃 慶翔美食部二仙雞 橋仔頭黃家肉燥飯 舊市羊肉店 古早味燒餅 丹丹漢堡 赤竹饅頭 牛老二牛肉麵 香港發財燒臘店 尖沙咀茶餐廳 珍竹林日本拉麵 萬國牛排 忽必烈蒙古烤肉 櫥窗滷味 彭氏臭豆腐 酥炸大魷魚 劉木瓜牛奶大王 月亮蝦餅 池王臭臭鍋 廟口翰鹽水雞
