The “Conversion” tab could have sections for codec conversion settings for different types of media (DVD, Blu-Ray, UHD Blu-Ray), which mainly only matters because 4K Blu-Rays are already in H265 and I don’t want to waste CPU cycles converting H.264 (AKA MPEG-4) content to H.265. With this feature, there could be a tab in Preferences called “Conversion”, where you could have an enable/disable checkbox, and audio and video codec prefences for DVDs, Blu-Rays, and 4K Blu-Rays (since 4K Blu-Rays are already in H.265). This feature could be an optional feature, since not everyone wants it, though I think most folks would want it. For Blu-Rays from 2011 and earlier, it would be also be great to have interlacing detection and deinterlacing as part of the conversion process, or at least optional de-interlacing (enabled in Preferences), perhaps with FFMPEG’s Bob Weaver Deinterlacing filter. ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v copy -c:a flac -c:s copy output.mkv). I’d like to be able to have MakeMKV use FFMPEG for converting the video and audio tracks, while keeping the subtitles (i.e. I noticed that MakeMKV at one point was able to convert the audio via FFMPEG. But I think it would be even better if it could convert the audio and video tracks after removing the DRM.


MakeMKV is a great tool, especially for ripping Blu-Rays.
