    I bought a BlueRay movie and want to convert it to a DVD, for my own use. What is the file format of a BlueRay and how do I convert it to DVD format?

    Thanks PeterC. I did a google search. I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with a good free converter.

    Sorry, I can't help you further - I have neither a Blu-Ray player or any disks :)

    Download and use the free MakeMKV tool. No adware, no spyware. It will rip the blueray and save as a .mkv file. Then use any other dvd maker software to create the dvd.

    Tony T when you say any DVD maker, do you mean just burn the .mkv file to a DVD?

    I don't have a blue ray player on my PC and the DVD drive doesn't recognize a Blue Ray disc.

    You cannot play, copy or rip a blue ray disk without a blue ray drive.
