BluRip

BluRip is a lightweight and portable video conversion tool designed for creating MKV files from BluRay items. It primarily address users with some background in video conversion apps.

Thanks to its portability, BluRip does not come with a setup pack. In order words, you can run the executable file from any location on the hard drive.

Alternatively, the program can be saved to a USB flash drive or similar storage unit, and run effortlessly on any computer.

More importantly, the Windows Registry does not get entry updates, and files are not left behind on the hard drive after removing the tool.

The interface of the application is made from a standard window with a well-defined layout, where you can point out the BluRay drive or folder using the tree view.

You can select the title and view a list of available streams, as well as specify the working directory, file prefix, target location and filename, along with the movie title.

As far as audio, video and subtitle settings are concerned, you can pick the encoding profile, autocrop and encoding input methods, use untouched audio, add more AC3 tracks for all DTS items, as well as mux all subtitles and copy them to a "Subs" folder.

You can check out log details, change the UI skin and language, configure advanced settings (e.g. demux, index, autocrop), as well as set file paths for external tools (e.g. eac3to.exe, java.exe, suptitle.dll). The latter option means that BluRip depends on third-party components to fully function.

The program is pretty low-demanding concerning the CPU and system memory, has a good response time, and takes a decent amount of time to finish a conversion task. No error dialogs have been shown in our evaluation, and the tool did not hang or crash. On the other hand, BluRip has not been updated for a long time.
