Sometimes, you want to watch a DVD on a set-top box such as the //Freebox// (in a version that doesn’t have a disc drive), or maybe you want to to watch an ISO…

I used to have [[mplayer http://www.mplayerhq.hu]] scripts to try and extract the right track, with the right audio and the right subtitles. Until I ran into the [[Conan http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082198/]] DVD ISO, which I just could not make sense of. Out of frustration, I set out to find a better solution. And here it is, Kevin!
Enter [[makemkv http://makemkv.com/]]. It’ll read the structure of the DVD (from the drive, or from an ISO), and let you create a MKV file, while selecting which audio and which subtitles you want to include in the final file. And it’ll do all that in just a few minutes.
