All of my blu-rays on Plex are encoded. Can Plex read untouched Blu-rays? I also wonder what that would do for loading times. I'd assume 60GB files would be slower to read than 20GB files.

As far as I know you can use only encoded

I'll have to give it a try and see what happens. Perhaps I should encode my Blu-rays with 0 compression so that I don't lose too much quality.

Sure,any software that allows you to rip lossless is good,practically you get a remux...

@Xanadu Any thoughts on MakeMKV? Do you have a preference?

It does the job,you get 100% lossless original quality audio and video and it's extremely simple to use.I haven't checked for some time to see other programs,I don't have other preference for the moment.
