FOSS Alternative to MakeMKV (www.reddit.com)

Looking for a FOSS way to backup my encrypted Blueray disks so I can stream them with Jellyfin and not worry about the disks getting scratched.

Much like the linked post, I hope this thread serves as a snapshot or "state of the industry" as of April 2024.

Basically your only other option is to find the keys for each BluRay you own yourself. I did go through the hoops a while ago and wrote it up: https://www.bennee.com/~alex/blog/2011/04/18/playing-blu-ray-under-linux/#playing-blu-ray-under-linux

However it's a pain sourcing the encryption keys you need for each disk. While I work hard to prefer FLOSS apps over their propriety equivalents in this case I'm happy to pay the small fee for a perpetual licence of MakeMKV.
