Ok so I want to start playing Blu-rays on my computer. What I want to do is save the Blu-ray to my computer and play it from some sort of media player (exactly like one would do with a CD/MP3 on a computer). Here are my questions:
1. What format can I save the Blu-ray to my computer's HDD (is it just iso)?
2. Can I change this format to something like say avi, or mp4?
3. Is there a format that I can save to that will be lossless and save with 5.1 surround sound?
4. Is there a format that will give me much smaller file while, having only a slight loss in quality?
5. Are there any free programs that would do this stuff for me, or just programs you have to buy?
PC specs:
i5-750 overclocked to 3.5GHz
4GB DDR3 memory
5850 ATi graphics card
Sorry for all these noob questions, but some of this stuff seems pretty hard to do. Also if this is the wrong forum, could a mod please move this thread. Thanks.
Edit: Forgot to add that I'm dual booting Win XP 32bit and Win 7 64bit, but if possible I would like to use the programs in Win 7.
