More than likely that was just a filesystem issue, since NTFS support on OS X/macOS has been either third-party-only (Paragon NTFS or something like that) or in the more recent versions of macOS itself, read-only. I'm not sure if write support has been added in the newest iterations, but FAT32 should have been cross-compatible all the way back to Tiger, at least.TreasonsBeta wrote:A while back, I had to reformat old external hard drives from windows to mac to be able to transfer files so I didn't know exactly how that process would translate to the USB bluray.
To be honest, I'm far more likely to either:I'd like to second yKazari's statement about control over which chapters to rip so you can do pieces instead of a whole. I haven't had a chance to use it but I noticed other people had the same issues here.

It was suggested that after a whole file rip, to use MKVtoolnix or Handbrake. This seems like a lot of time wasted just to make segments that won't crash your editing software. I personally had to use FLV Crunch for my old files.
A) Rip using MakeMKV's Backup option (which preserves the entire disc structure as-is, it just removes the AACS and BD+), and then burn that to a BD-R for future use and reduce any potential wear on the original disc. The Backup on the hard drive can also be used as input for MKVtoolNix to parse chapters out, and if I wanted to edit with it, it would only be a simple copy operation, and/or far faster than having to rip first if I wanted to use MKVtoolNix.

B) If I want to use it to edit, I'd want to be able to scrub the entire episode/series/etc., and doing that from an optical drive is painful (only 4x read speed level painful). You have to really know which parts you want ahead of time. If you've got the whole thing ripped to the hard drive first, then having to go back in and look for something else is essentially painless.
