This may have seemed like an incredibly long process for ripping a disc, and some will say it's overkill.

If not and the files are all around the same size, then you can likely skip the rest of this step and continue. Now have a look at the other sub / sup files, is there any one that's significantly less (less than half the size) of the others? If there is, you've likely found your forced subtitle track, and this is the one you'll want to include in your final rip.

Examine the size of these files (ignore any idx files for this step.) Take the largest file, which will probably be the full subtitles for the film. sup file if you're doing this for a blu-ray) for each subtitle track in the same folder as the mkv file. Select each track that says subtitles, make sure "use source dir for output" is checked and then hit "Extract."

This guide doesn't show you a one click approach that does all the work for you, it's much more of a manual process. I've seen a few guides around on ripping DVDs, but fewer for Blu-rays, and many miss what I believe are important steps (such as ensuring the correct foreign language subtitles are preserved!) While ripping your entire DVD collection would have seemed insane due to storage requirements even a few years ago, these days it can make perfect sense. Because of that, I've put together a quick "cheat sheet" here which acts as a handy reference just to jog your memory on each key step.
