If you like, you can click “Settings” to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. For watching videos on the Android-based device, 720p with 1500~2000kbps is just all right.

Step 4. Start Blu-ray to Xperia Z5 conversion. 

When all the settings are OK, click "Convert" button to start ripping Blu-ray movies to MP4 video for playback on Sony Xperia Z5 Smartphone with ease.

When the conversion is over, click "open" to locate the ripped video files. After that, you can connect your Sony Xperia Z5 to computer and transfer the converted Blu-ray files to Xperia Z5 for enjoyment on the go.
