I didn’t use x264 to encode it, but can certainly encode a compatible file for you. Just need to see if I can dig up the lossless version…

Aha, but, h264 is h264 isn’t it? It’s decoded in the same way no matter what writing library is used, so as long as the settings match they can be joined, no?

Honestly, after all the hard work that went into making it a proper blu-ray, it pains me to see people just ripping out the video to make MKVs, but I get it.

Well they are much more versatile. I prefer to rip a BD I own and stream it from my PC than to watch it straight from the BD - and in some cases it’s necessary (there are some blurays I own that don’t have either English audio or subtitles for example). I don’t have to worry about glitches like if the disc skips, or if the HDCP loses sync.
