How do I convert my iTunes download of the movie “The Ghost and The Darkness” to an .mp4 or .mov so that I can watch it from a thumb drive or a data disc any time I want to thru my bluray player? This movie is not on bluray and has never been released in 16x9 and yet I have an HD copy of it that I paid for from itunes. I guess I need to decrypt it or something… Thanks!

This movie is on Blu-ray disc.

That disc appears to be region B locked, though.

That’s not a helpful answer. I’m not going to buy a multi region bluray player just because there’s region B locked bluray out there. I just wanted to know if there is a way I can decrypt the file I described so that I can make an .mp4 or .mov file out of it.

Haven’t done it myself but I’ve read somewhere that Tuneskit does the job.

It still is on Blu-ray disc which you mentioned in your original post it isn’t.

I mentioned playing the flash drive thru my bluray player. It has ports and it’s basically a little computer that plays discs. Your suggestion of “BUY THE BLURAY” wasn’t helpful.
