After searching the best workfow for ripping blue ray/dvd on mac, I find Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper for Mac. Then I purchase its products and found them competitive and reliable. Ease of use and reliability in ripping many many different discs. Biggest improvement of this program is that I would welcome would be the ability to estimate output file size based on ripping parameters so I could quickly check how big the final file would likely be. Previously I have used RipIt for Mac and Handbrake/Jack the Ripper. Biggest problem with these was that they didn’t always read discs. Never had that problem with the BD Ripper for Mac from Pavtube. I have HTC One, iPad mini, Phone used as phone, data collection device, emails, messaging and games and iPad for MPD control, surfing and emails, Pavtube offers many presets for these devices.

Download Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper for Mac and install it. It is the ideal software to you. It will help to rip and convert Blu-ray to a mass of videos formats with fast speed and high video quality. Moreover, you can choose the desired subtitle for output and select forced subtitles for some foreign languages.

Note: Put Blu-ray onto Blu-ray drive before ripping Blu-rays.

Step 1. Run the software and load Blu-ray.

Click “Load file” button to import Blu-ray. It will take only few seconds to rip Blu-ray. Then the software will recognize the real main title of Blu-ray and pick it automatically. You do not need to look for the main title manually.

Click the selected main title you can preview the whole Blu-ray movies on the preview window on the right, which works like a media player.

Tips: You can check forced subtitles for output.

“Forced subtitle” is optional and uncheck by default. Go to check “Forced subtitles” for output.

Take note that it will output forced subtitles only if it is checked. And you can choose the desired subtitle and audio tracks in the “Subtitle” and “Audio” drop list.

Step 2. Choose output format for TV/AC Ryan player.

Choose TV/AC Ryan player supported formats in the “Format” dropdown list. You can go to “Common Video” or “HD Video” options to find what you like. MKV(Matroska) Video (*.mkv) or MKV HD Video (*.mkv) format is better for wathing or streaming on TV/AC Ryan player. It will remain the high quality of Blu-ray and suffer less quality loss.

Tips: For some advances users, you can go to adjust video and audio parameters like bitrate, resolution, channels, etc. Click “Settings” button you can go to check and change them as you like.

Tips: 

If you simply want to back up Blu-ray to external hard drive, here are two solutions:

1. Click the “computer” icon on the top to output 1:1 Blu-ray file exactly the same as original.

2. Select “Copy>Directly Copy” in format list to output an intact m2ts file of the main title.

3. I used another Pavtube program called ByteCopy for Mac to backup my Blu-rays without quality loss. Meanwhile, several audio tracks and subtitles are preserved so I can switch language when watching movies.
