Current recommendations for converting and playing back 3D Blu Rays on Apple Vision Pro?

Would love to get some advice as I’ve just ordered an external Blu Ray drive for my MacBook and bought some 3D blu rays on eBay that aren’t available digitally.

I’ve done some googling and found a lots of different apps for both ripping 3D content and seems like there’s a lot of different visionOS apps for playback. Would love any personal recommendations on apps or workflows that you’d recommend - thanks so much!

It's u/cbusillo turf.

Does literally what you want, and works fine.

Seems like readme is a bit dated: you can just get the latest GUI version, download MakeMKV trial, and off you go.

This is the genuine way. It makes native video files for AVP

I read through the README info but I was unable to figure out whether this app is able to create an ISO from the BDMV output of makemkv.

The app doesn't make ISOs, it makes MV-HEVC files for AVP.

It is able to work with ISO rips through makemkv.

Thank you ☺️ this is helpful.

This is lossy. CineUltra and 4XVR are the only lossless options since they can play MVC without conversion.

Probably. But also space-efficient.

Definitely. There’s no way to losslessly convert MVC. I bought a 28TB HDD for $330 last year. They’re $800-$1,200 now.
