There’s no GPU acceleration, but then there doesn’t need to be - all it’s doing is taking the raw video stream from the DVD and placing it in a container file. (Image credit: MakeMKV) MakeMKV review: SpeedĪs it doesn’t compress, MakeMKV puts less strain on your PC’s processor than other ripping apps. Of course, a solution like WinX DVD Ripper Platinum (opens in new tab) does all this for you, quicker.
MakeMKV and Handbrake make a very nice partnership here, one producing the rips and the other compressing to your exact specifications, especially as both are free. The feature set isn't as broad as the likes of Wondershare Uniconverter (opens in new tab), but it does enough.Īs it doesn’t compress, MakeMKV produces larger files than other ripping programs, so you’ll need to be prepared for this with plenty of hard drive space in your PC or on an external drive ready to take the files. The app can rip from DVDs, Blu-rays and the defunct HD-DVD format, should you have a working drive laying around. ISOs are exact copies of disks that can be mounted in ‘virtual’ disk drives and act exactly like their spinning, 12cm counterparts. The program can also work with ISO files you may have saved on your PC. All you do is point it to your DVD drive, and it does the rest. There’s nothing much in the way of configuring to do, apart from setting an output directory for your MKV files to be saved to and how long the app tries to read sections of disk that are giving it problems. Being such a simple program, MakeMKV is extremely simple to use.
