Ran this program on Windows 11.

I´ve been backing up my dvds and blurays for decades. I am well aware of all the nuances of making proper backups of movie discs.

The interface of this program is simple to understand but it becomes confusing when you navigate it.

Example:

In the Format section you are presented with a plethora of pre-configured profiles / options to select which was obviously developed for the average user who simply wants to copy a movie to the hard drive. No problem there, but the options change when selecting the same format container in a different section:

If you select Format – Common Video – MKV
If you click on the settings button:
Bit rate for video will only allow you to raise it up to 2500 kbps
Audio: only AAC and MP3

If you select Format – HD Video – MKV H.264
When you click the settings button:
Now video bit rate can be raised to 9800 kbps
Audio: AC3 shows up now and MP3 audio is gone

If you select Format – HD Video – MKV H.265
When you click the settings button:
Now video bit rate can be raised to 9800 kbps
Audio: all audio formats are gone except AAC

MKV is such a versatile container. Why not list ALL the possibilities of video and audio formats every time you choose the MKV container? Or add a Custom section to the format menu for all of us who know how to transcode video and audio.

There is no possibility to extract or add subtitles. Not all movies are in English and even a ton of English-speaking movies have “alien” or “ancient” dialogues which would need to be subbed.

I have an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X with 128GB of RAM running along an Nvidia RTX 3070. Ripping and converting on other similar programs is much faster than this one. I suspect that the lack of an option allowing users to transcode / encode using the video GPU instead of software / processor encoding is what makes this program slower than others.

All in all not a bad program but there is a lot of opportunity for improvement.

Thanks for the offering.
