Blu Ray Ripping on Fedora 18
After doing so searching on Blu Ray ripping on Linux I found that no one seemed to have a good how to for Blu Ray Ripping on Fedora 18. I also was not finding a method that worked consistently for free, or close to free. I found a great piece of software called MakeMKV. I was able to get Blu Ray ripping working fast and easy.
MakeMKV is free to try for 30 days, after that the ask for 50$ for the purchase. I really think this is a good buy. It was one of the better programs I have found for Blu Ray ripping and they support Linux.
Here are the easy staps to get MakeMKV set up and running on Fedora 18. First I would go through the Fedora 18 Tips and Tricks and get all your codecs installed.
Now follow this how to:
1. Install all the software that is required to build MakeMKV on Fedora 18.
Become SuperUser
su
yum update
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install openssl-devel qt4-devel expat-devel
2. Dowload the Makemkv programs which comes in 2 parts.

3. Unpack the downloads.
tar -zxvf makemkv-bin-1.7.10.tar.gz
tar -zxvf makemkv-oss-1.7.10.tar.gz
4. Build the software.
cd makemkv-bin-1.7.10
make -f makefile.linux
su -c 'make -f makefile.linux install'
Repeat for the other directory.
cd makemkv-oss-1.7.10
make -f makefile.linux
su -c 'make -f makefile.linux install'
5. Start the program by typing:
makemkv
There you go. MakeMKV should be up and running.
