Converting Blu-ray Stereoscopic Interleaved Movies directly to Matroska Videos (.ssif to .mkv conversion) appears not possible.

Even though both formats represent video file types, there are no available video editing programs or (online) conversion tools capable of converting .ssif to .mkv.

Understanding SSIF and MKV file formats

SSIF (StereoScopic Interleaved File) is a file format used primarily for 3D Blu-ray discs. It contains interleaved video streams that allow for stereoscopic 3D playback. This format is not widely supported outside of Blu-ray players and specific software designed to handle 3D content.

MKV (Matroska Video) is a flexible, open standard video file format that can hold an unlimited number of video, audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file. It is widely used for high-definition video and supports various codecs, making it a popular choice for video distribution.

How to convert SSIF to MKV

Converting SSIF to MKV involves extracting the video streams from the SSIF file and then packaging them into an MKV container. This process may require specialized software that can handle 3D video content.

Best software for SSIF to MKV conversion

One of the best tools for converting SSIF to MKV is MakeMKV. This software is designed to convert video clips from proprietary (and usually encrypted) disc formats into a set of MKV files, preserving most information but not changing it in any way. Here's how you can use it:

  • Download and install MakeMKV from the official website.
  • Insert your 3D Blu-ray disc into your Blu-ray drive.
  • Open MakeMKV and select the Blu-ray drive.
  • Click on File → Open Disc to load the SSIF files.
  • Select the video streams you want to convert.
  • Click on Make MKV to start the conversion process.

MakeMKV will extract the video streams and package them into an MKV file, which can then be played on most media players that support the MKV format.
