To convert a DVD to MKV, you need a DVD ripper that supports MKV output. MakeMKV is for lossless MKV copies from DVDs, HandBrake is for compressed MKV files, and DVDFab DVD Ripper offers both. The workflow is basically the same: insert the disc, open the software, select the DVD drive as the source, choose MKV as the output format (DVDFab supports both compressed and passthrough MKV), and start the conversion.
