   @emacsen Why on earth would you thank people for telling you that it's possible to conveniently run a GPL and LGPL infringing version of proprietary malware?
   
   All you need is:
   https://www.videolan.org/developers/libbluray.html
   https://www.videolan.org/developers/libbdplus.html
   https://www.videolan.org/developers/libaacs.html
   and the keys from:
   https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=176924
   
   I would recommend using the cached BD+ tables rather than running the proprietary software that implements BD+ corruption correction.
   
   The above will allow you to play any bluray disc on mpv and also copy the disk with ffmpeg (with the libbluray compile time flag enabled).
   
   
   You can scan a bluray playlist with: `ffprobe bluray:/dev/sr0`
   
   You can copy a bluray playlist to a mkv with: `ffmpeg -playlist 800 -i bluray:/dev/sr0 -codec copy bluray_playlist.mkv`

     Does anyone know of a replacement for MakeMKV for Linux- Free Software preferred.

     The idea is I want to be able to take a DVD or Blu-Ray and have a single easy way to rip the contents without transcoding it- just changing the container.

     Then I can use Handbrake or similar after.

     I don't want to do a full bitwise copy.. MakeMKV is the right approach, but it's Windows/Mac only (and non-Free)

     EDIT: Thank you to the people who have shown me that MakeMKV for Linux exists. is there FLOSS for this?
