Has anyone used dvdfab under whine (seeing as anydvd wont) does it give good clean output, or is there another way i can get the files from the bluray disc, which i can give to megui to work on?

There is MakeMKV (http://www.makemkv.com/). Current beta is still free of cost, but the license will apparently cost EUR 50 + taxes (http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1671).

why do i get the feeling that if it does get released at that rice you are going to see "versions" of it on-line for free.

Does that have an option to just copy the files without converting them? Haven't had a chance to look at it yet

Well, it doesn't convert the tracks themselves, only remuxes them to a Matroska file. I don't think there's an M2TS output mode.

might be a moot point atm as both anydvd (whihc i cant up date as its a trial version) has issues when copying it as does dvdfab, seems its a MKB17 disc

Latest MakeMKV shouldn't have problems with those titles. If it can't rip your disc, report to the official forum.

Hi!Does that have an option to just copy the files without converting them?Yes - In addition to being able to convert BluRay files to .MKVs, MakeMKV can perform a FULL DISC BluRay backup (Including menus) in the BluRay's original format...

Ah, nice to know! This might be worth mentioning on the front page of the MakeMKV site.
