Been a while. Ahh.. the memories.
Anyway, Download the latest Vdub2. Ripped my blu-ray in MakeMKV. VD2 cuts and saves it to MKV fine but not sure which video "compression" setting to pick. I don't want compression(PQ loss) so In "select video compression" I selected "similar to source". I tried the (Uncompressed RGB/YCbCr) which yields a 500GB file from the 35GB original. Largarith which says no conversion but yielded a 10GB file. x264 8bit also said no conversion but also yielded a large file.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

Don't give in to DVD2ONE, that leads to the dark side.

Select x264 codec. If file is too large increase CRF value. You can increase compression by choosing a slower preset at the expense of encoding time. Sometimes Blu-Ray (lossless) audio can also be quite large, you may want to compress that as well.

Hello,
"similar to source", "no conversion" comments only reflect the colorspace and pixel format difference of uncompressed frames. This says nothing about the compression. -
what about direct stream copy ?
what types of manipulations are you doing ? what does "edit a mkv" mean ? -

I don't think "direct stream copy" works with AVC video in Virtualdub2 does it?
Perhaps give Avidemux a try leave video and audio on Copy -

Update:
The program it self says you will get artifacts because you are not cutting on K frames. I let it make the video and there was artifacts in the cut scene.Don't give in to DVD2ONE, that leads to the dark side. -
All non re-encoding cutting tools require you to cut on keyframes - it's the only way to ensure absolutely no re-encoding
If you need frame accuracy not on a keyframe, you need a "smart renderer" which re-encodes only the frames in the affected GOP . So this minimizes the quality loss. eg. videoredo, solveigmm video splitter, tmpgenc smart renderer -
