4. Is MakeMKV Faster than Handbrake?

MakeMKV is faster than Handbrake since MakeMKV directly converts DVDs to MKV format, while Handbrake needs to re-encode the DVD file. HandBrake ripping speed depends more on the CPU power and settings. To learn more about the comparison, check MakeMKV vs Handbrake in terms of DVD ripping speed, output quality, file size and more.

5. Does MakeMKV Remove Copy Protections?

Yes. MakeMKV is able to remove Blu-ray disc protections AACS and BD+, structure protection, and DVD region codes. However, there are many other encryptions that MakeMKV fails to handle, such as playlist obfuscation/fake playlists.

6. Does MakeMKV Lose Quality?

No. MakeMKV is very popular among users, not only because of the free MakeMKV beta keys. One important reason is that MakeMKV won't make any change, to the content of the source DVD/Blu-ray discs. It will simply extract the source data, such as the sound tracks, subtitles, video, and audio streams, and put them into a separate MKV file. Therefore, the output MKV is almost as large as the size of the source DVD or Blu-ray discs.

7. What format does MakeMKV use?

As its name suggests, MakeMKV uses MKV as the output format. That means it won't make any changes to the original DVD video and data. So it is an ideal choice if a user wants to keep the maximum DVD quality. On the other hand, the MKV files also come in very large sizes, especially when you rip a Blu-ray disc to MKV using MakeMKV.

8. Why is MakeMKV not reading Blu-ray?

While all features (including Blu-ray decryption and processing) are free during beta, some Blu-ray and DVD discs are not fully supported. Meanwhile, the ability to convert or stream Blu-ray discs is shareware functionality. So you can always use it free to rip DVD discs. But for Blu-rays, you will have to pay for an activation key after a 30 day trial period. Or, MakeMKV will stop reading Blu-ray discs.
