However, at the fist time I was in the dilemma of how to convert my DVD and Blu-ray collections to MP4 so that it could be accepted by my Asustor AS-302T NAS. I used to use Leawo, but it stopped using for they stole MakeMKV code. Although there are many format converters on the market, I wan to pay for a worthy program. After searching on Internet, a blog named "Top 5 best Blu-ray Ripper Review" enlightened my way. This article lists top 5 best Blu-ray Ripper programs review during 2013 to 2014 according to Google Ranking and user popularity. Finally I choose Pavtube BDMagic which lists on the Top 1 of the review. After using it for a period of time, I really appreciate it for five reasons:

Following let’s check out the procedure of ripping Blu-ray to YouTube as example.

Download the Best Blu ray Ripper for Mac and install it in your Mac first. (If you are a windows user, go to download Blu-ray Ripper).

Step 1. Launch it and import Blu-ray movies.

Firstly, you need to properly insert your Blu-ray to Blu-ray drive and keep the networked. Run the software and hit the “Load file” button to import the inserted Blu-ray. After loading successfully, the true main title will be recognized automatically. So you do not need to look for it manually.

Then you could go to choose the desired subtitle and audio for output on the main interface.

Step 2. Select output format.
  
First, let’s review the formats YouTube supports. Here is a list of some well-known formats that YouTube supports:

• WebM files – Vp8 video codec and Vorbis Audio codecs
• MPEG4, 3GPP and MOV files – Typically supporting h264, mpeg4 video codecs, and AAC audio codec
• AVI – Many cameras output this format – typically the video codec is MJPEG and audio is PC
• MMPEGPS – Typically supporting MPEG2 video codec and MP2 audio
• WMV
• FLV – Adobe-FLV1 video codec, MP3 audio

Then choose one suitable format in “Format” drop down list, I recommend you choose MP4, WebM or FLV which are used commonly by YouTube.



 

Step 3. Adjust parameters. (Optional)

Before conversion, you can change the video and audio parameters including size, bitrate, channels, etc. Click “Settings” to see the detailed profile settings. For example, if you want to have a smaller file size, you can choose lower bitrate to achieve it. When you have no idea about it, you can skip this step. The default setting is also a good choice.
  
Step 4. Convert Blu-ray

Click “Convert” button to start ripping Blu-ray to MP4, FLV, WebM, etc. Formats for YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo and more. If you wan to get the generated files quickly, “Open” button will take you there.
