#start makemkvcon on a new thread writing to a log in /tmp/ If the titles do not load in the correct order you can always override the title list in /tmp/titles.list temporarily. At this point you should be able to use either a keyboard or a media center remote to skip between titles. Chances are the first title will be the menu background video and the later titles may be special features. Since this is a network stream of the video on the disc the menus will not work. Makemkvcon has some advanced command line parameters that allow you to customize what port the stream is started on and also what size of title is allowed to be displayed.

parse added titles from the makemkvcon outputīelow is a simple bash script which simply runs makemkvcon on /dev/sr0 and opens vlc once all the titles have been processed.

To automate this process we need to perform a number of steps Also makemkvcon lists each added title on stdout which can be easily parsed. One of the great things about vlc is that you can pass each title as another argument on the command line. The problem with this is that you need to open each title separately. The ‘-f’ argument forces vlc into fullscreen and the ‘-I lirc’ enables a remote control to be usable with vlc. Vlc -I lirc -f This opens vlc and directs it to the default first title of the bluray. You can connect to this stream using a command like this: This decrypts the disc, parses the titlesm and starts a network stream on port 51000 (by default) using the bluray drive /dev/sr0. Makemkvcon is used with a command similar to the following: Once makemkv is installed it comes with a gui application (makemkv) and a command line tool (makemkvcon) which can be used to automate the process.

Feel free to use either method however I had the best luck with makemkv. One of the best sources of information on both methods is on the Restricted Formats help page. This loads a bluray from the drive, decrypts it, and either renders it as a media stream or stores the contents of the disc on the hard drive. The alternative is an application called Makemkv. One us using keys with libaasc however this depends on they keys for your specific bluray being released (at least as far as I can tell). Hopefully it will be at some point but for now there are two different ways of getting Bluray support working. Bluray support on Ubuntu is not activated by default like with multi region dvd support.
