Ripping Marvel movies to media server with retention of 5.1 Audio

In this article, we will show you the way rip, convert, store, and stream your Marvel (2D/3D) Blu-ray movies to media server with retention of 5.1 Audio.

I own hundreds of Blu-Ray (purchase all the 3D versions on release day) too many to my movie list. All these are the marvel movies, and other family friendly movies. They’re digitally encoded versions of my favorite movies and TV shows, but trapped on physical platters. If I want to watch something, I have to find the disc, slide it into a player or a computer with a BD drive and flip TV to the proper input.

So I think it will be nice to have all these 2D/3D Marvel movies backed up/converted and saved to media server (latest encryption necessary), then I can watch on my portable devices (like LG-3D TV, iPad, iPod, Android Phone, Kindle, Nook, various Android Tablets, etc.) anytime I want without having to pull out the disc on my BD player.

The point here is the main thing I was looking for was full HD ripping with retention of 5.1 Audio -my other Ripping program is not able to rip the newer Blu-Rays. Well, this article will give you the answer to copying Marvel (2D/3D) Blu-ray movies to media server for watching and streaming with 5.1 audio preserving.

Rip DVD/Blu-ray to MP4, MKV, AVI with multi-track on Windows 8.1/8/XP/7

This guide will leads you to easily get your Blu-ray/DVD contens to MP4, MKV, AVI format in multi-track format on Windows 8.1/8/XP/7 so you can switch to the desired language during movie playback.

I am trying to compress some DVD (and some Blu-ray) to h.264 to get my discs be read by VLC. Then how can Io keep at least two audio tracks as well as two subtitles tracks (ex: both English and French audio and subtitles tracks). With VLC, I would then be able to select which audio track to hear, and which subtitle track to display, if any.

I looked at the latest versions of DVDFab, FairUse Wizard, AutoGK and HandBrake. Unless I am missing something, none of them support preserving two audio tracks AND two subtitle tracks. DVDFab only supports one audio track; FairUse only supports one subtitle track; AutoGK does not seem to do h.264 at all and HandBrake seems to be limited to a single subtitle track as well. Please note that I just tried these software once and may have skipped over some nices features.

So I am wondering if there is a software (free or not) that can do that? Please note that I am quite new to BD/DVD conversion and would prefer a software that's relatively easy to use, i.e. with simplified options or some sort of pre-validated presets. Can anyone comment on the right toolset and procedure?

To get Blu-ray/DVD playable in multi-track, you should convert BD/DVD to multi-track MP4, MKV, AVI format first. In this case, it’s necessary to own Pavtube Bytecopy.
