Greetings,
First time with Blu Ray. Lots to learn. My output is to a server using ISO files and played back via KodiTV. (This is my hope at least )
So...finally got my first Blu Rays (TV Show) and backing up to individual episodes using CloneBD as above (Trial Version). I backed the First Complete Disc to HDD and use that as my source.
Open Folder>Create Disc, Folder, ISO>Partial Copy>Select Single Episode>ISO>Begin Conversion...
The only setting I have changed is the Output folder. Then "Begin Conversion"
Everytime I get a menu on the outputed file (ISO). How do I stop this?? I don't want a menu.
Do I have to check "Directly Play Main Title"?? This seems to signify there is still a menu, but the video begins playing. I still don't want a menu.
Can you batch create (BD) iso files (without any conversion) like you can in the MKV side of CloneBD? Doesn't seem like you can??
How many of you convert to mkv?
From my own observations using a BD folder (converted to ISO) - files are slow to start with PowerDVD17, chapter skips are also slow. This does not appear to be the case with MKV outputed files. Are there other advantages using MKV. What about disadvantages?? What format is easier to tweak?? (Add chapters, cut parts off etc). One thing I need to learn is how to mod the various formats. I'd perfer to leave the files as they are without conversion to another format.
Thanks for the help.
One last question...CloneBD gives different title number compared to PowerDVD17. Why is this? I've always used PowerDVD7 (until I recently built a new machine) to check my DVD's and it was always correct. What's changed? Has PowerDVD17 changed? Thanks
