I use MakeMKV and DVD Audio Extractor on a Mac to rip Blu-rays and create FLAC or ALAC files, and it works fine. In fact I just finished doing this for the Tears For Fears - The Tipping Point Blu-ray which finally arrived in my mailbox today. (As as side note, I also used DVDAE to create stereo files to put on my iPhone for on-the-go listening, down-mixed from 5.1, and they're very dynamic, unlike the brickwalled versions on the CD or streaming stereo.)
Here are the detailed steps I follow:
- Put disc in Blu-ray drive and wait for it to be scanned
- Start MakeMKV; wait for it to scan the disc - do NOT “open” the disc by clicking the graphic
- Click the Backup icon on the MakeMKV toolbar (NOT the MakeMKV icon)
- Make sure the “Decrypt video files” option is checked, and change the output directory if needed, then click OK and wait for completion
- Start DVD Audio Extractor
- Change the “DVD source” drop-down to Folder, then click the folder icon to the right of the field
- Select the folder created from the MakeMKV backup, then click Open
- Click the pencil icon to the right of the folder icon, then click “Download metadata from db”
- Click through the Titles in the upper-left box to find the one(s) containing the song tracks as Chapters (if the metadata download in the last step didn't work, you may have to guess based on the number of chapters in the title and the length of each chapter)
- Click "Select All" above the chapter numbers, or click to select the individual tracks desired (uncheck any unwanted Titles on the left that my have been selected by default)
- Click to select the desired format / number of channels in the lower-left box
- Click the Next> button, then select the desired output format (such as FLAC or ALAC), the desired sample rate (normally "Same as input"), number of channels and bits per sample
- Click the Next> button, then select the output location (create new folder if needed)
- Click the Next> button, then click the Start button
- When it completes, check the output files to verify they came out as expected
