Note: I'm not sure how well this works / doesn't work in Windows, I have little experience messing with it. If you are not very familiar with Linux, . refers to the current path, you could also specify a path like ~/Videos for your Videos path in your home directory.

ISO to MKV

makemkvcon mkv iso:./movie.iso all .

Files to MKV

makemkvcon mkv file:/path/to/the/VIDEO_TS/ all .

By Drive Number

# scan for drive number, usually it'll be 0 if you have only one drive
makemkvcon -r --cache=1 info disc:9999

# rip a disc by drive number to a path
makemkvcon mkv disc:0 all .
