&mkvmerge; can read chapters from unencrypted Blu-rays. For that you can use the path to one of the MPLS play lists with the
<parameter>--chapters</parameter> parameter.

<title>Reading chapters from DVDs</title>
<para>
When MKVToolNix is compiled with the <productname>libdvdread</productname> library, &mkvmerge; can read chapters from DVDs. For that you
can use the path to one of the folders or files on the DVD with the <parameter>--chapters</parameter> parameter. As DVDs can contain
more than one title and each title has its own set of chapters, you can append a colon and the desired title number to the end of the
file name argument. The title number defaults to 1.
