Maintaining DVD quality and speed are far more important than file size. Storage is a 8 TB external disk, so like I said, space isn't an issue. The movies need to be in a format that is compatible with iTunes. I have my iTunes library shared on my local network, I will be playing them with an AppleTV.
I am using another Mac for my media server. Handbrake and other video converter apps can do that.īlu ray player? - Linux Mint Forums As an example, some do not like the x265 video format, so you would have to test that and possibly convert (transcode) videos with x265 or whatever does not work into something that does. Not all media servers can play all of the video formats especially some newer video formats using newer video codecs. Most media servers can play mkv or mp4 video files. mkv files, but those could easily be converted to mp4 and other video formats if need be. Here are my thoughts on this as well.įor ripping DVD and or Blu-Ray discs there is a superb and fast application call "makeMKV" and they have a free and paid-for version. I just read your post and the good replies to it. How long should it take to copy and encode a DVD? I tried getting the macOS version of Handbrake to work, but libdvdcss isn't cooperating, so that doesn't work. Using an old program called DVD Backup, it can copy (not encode) a DVD in maybe 5 minutes. In comparison, I dug out my old 2004-ish vintage Powerbook G4 (1.67GHz), running Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). If I use handbrake to both copy and encode a DVD one at a time, it is still very slow, well over an hour. It takes over 20 minutes for dvdbackup to copy the DVD, then Handbrake close to an hour. The problem I am running into is it is very slow, much slower than I think it should be.
The reason I am doing it this way is to que up a bunch of movies, then encode them overnight. I use dvdbackup to copy the TS_VIDEO directory to the MacBook Pro, then use Handbrake to encode it. I am using a combination of a command line tool called dvdbackup and handbrake to encode the DVDs. I am running Mint 19.3 on a 2011 MacBook Pro with a 2.5 GHz i7 (Sandybridge), 4 cores, 16 GB RAM. I am trying to set up a media server, I am in the process of converting my DVD library into MP4 and importing them into my iTunes library.
