Blu-ray ripping -- best file format?
« on: December 02, 2021, 03:52:38 pm »

I have a number of short films, ripped from DVD and kept in a playlist on JRiver. I want to rip more short films from Blu-ray and add them to the same playlist so, on playback, JRiver will shuffle through all the files regardless of the source, DVD or Blu-ray. The DVDs were ripped to m4v. My question is: does it matter what file format I rip the Blu-rays to and, if so, what format should I choose?

I rip them to mkv using the default settings of makemkv.

And JRiver will shuffle between the mkv and m4v file formats just as it does between FLAC, WAV and ALAC?
