Step 1. Run Pavtube ByteCopy, and click “Load Disc” button to import movie files from Blu-ray Disc (or DVD if you like or Blu-ray/DVD ISO/IFO image files). Keep your computer networked so that Blu-ray Ripper can access AACS keys to crack the Blu-ray copy-protections.

Step 2. Click the “Convert” button to start ripping Blu-ray to 1080p MKV video. After conversion you may click “Browse Export Path” to find generated MKV files. You can then copy the MKV video to HDD and play the ripped Blu-ray movie with Xtreamer Ultra.

By default ByteCopy converts Blu-ray movie to 1080p MKV without compressing. All it does is extracting the main movie, all audio tracks and subtitles and packaging them into MKV container.

Some Tips:
1. A Blu-ray movie usually contains audio track and subtitles of multiple languages. To remove the ones you don’t want, expand the movie directory (by clicking the plus sign) and uncheck them. Deleting some HD audio tracks lets you downsize the MKV file size without degrading the Blu-ray video quality.

2. Ripping a Blu-ray to 1080p MKV may take an hour or longer time, depending on data size and drive speed.

3. The ByteCopy lets you compress a Blu-ray to MKV with smaller file size. To reduce file size you can click the “Edit” button and set down video bitrate.
