Thankfully, MakeMKV is able to get through that with certain drives for every disk I've tried.
Ripping those disks is legitimately easier than playing them w/o breaking DRM on PCs
For real, VLC is great, I've totally had issues playing some of them with it. If I recall there's supposed to be a way to let vlc use MakeMKV to break them for playback, but yeah, way more work than just ripping it.
In MakeMKV preferences, Integration tab, VLC should be listed there
