DVDFab All-In-One

To rip 4K Blu-ray discs losslessly for playback on Plex or 4K TVs, you will need a UHD-friendly drive, 50GB+ of storage, and robust decryption software. While this guide covers both free and professional tools for Windows and Mac, my tests show that DVDFab UHD Ripper is the most efficient choice. It bypasses strict AACS 2.0 protections, preserves HDR10/Dolby Vision and Atmos metadata, and leverages GPU acceleration to complete a 54GB lossless rip in under 12 minutes with a significantly optimized file size.

Firmware downgrades replace restricted AACS 2.0 microcode with legacy versions to enable raw data access. The DVDFab UHD Drive Tool automates this microcode reversion for various hardware models. This process ensures the drive's internal controller bypasses encryption checks and enables bit-perfect 4K backups through the DVDFab software ecosystem.

Converting a Blu-ray to an ISO file creates a sector-by-sector digital mirror, essential for archiving commercial discs with their native Java menus and metadata intact.

Whether you are using a Windows or a Mac with Apple Silicon, this tutorial ensures a lossless rip.
