I always enjoy seeing how others handle their library. My preference is to not transcode. I keep the original video and audio files, and simply wrap them in an mkv container. Of course this method takes more hard drive space, but you get full quality playback. For devices that can't handle a given codec my server will transcode on the fly. Of course your method does allow for a much larger library per terabyte. There is no right or wrong answer, and seeing how others handle their setup is always super interesting.

I've only ever tried ripping a DVD once. I used Handbrake because it was free and came highly recommended. I expected I might have issues, like the video quality not coming out that good, and I was prepared for that. To my surprise, the video looked fine. What wasn't fine though was the audio sync. It started out fine, but was off by about a minute by the end of the movie. I still have no idea what went wrong with a process that's supposedly pretty much automatic. As for MP4 vs. MKV: While MP4 is more compatible, MKV does have advantages, such as being able to contain multiple audio streams, and to include "soft" subtitles. Most Blu-Ray players will play MKV files from a disc or a USB flash drive, however I haven't seen one yet that will let you use a separate subtitle file. However, they will usually play the subs in an MKV file. Another plus is that you can add and remove audio, video, and subtitle tracks from an MKV file without needing to re-encode any of it.

@@Mrshoujo by specs the mp4 container does not officially support chapter markers and most players don't support chapter markers from mp4 container. For example vlc support chapter markers embedded in the container. Even powerdvd but windows media player does not. The main issues is player the support. Can you put chapter markers in a mp4 container? sure... it is a container. You can used apps likes drax, chaptermaker, handbreak, or even FFMPEG etc. But all those are re-encoding the actually video file you have and insert that external chapter marker file differently. For example FFMPEG will write the chapter info right into the stream, YMMWV when it comes to playback. At the end of the day it is based on what you want. I don't much care for things that are un-supported. Makes this very difficult for playback. Plus, I don't like re-encoding my rips. Lastly, in all my years of ripping (30 years and counting), I have never come across any mp4 that had embedded chapter markers straight of a DVD or blu-ray. it was always a separate file that gets reference by a MPLS file. On DVD is it the ifo file. If you don't mind sharing how you came across those mp4 files with chapter markers? Just because I have not seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist and I am always up for learning new things. Cheers! and sorry for such a long post :)

With high-speed internet and cheap SSDs widely available, I'd argue DVDs (and to a lesser degree Blu-rays) shouldn't be backed-up or distributed online as .MP4s, but as .ISO rips containing the _entire_ disc. Maybe we can even get a nice app or Linux distro that lets you browse your digital collection by the box art, similar to browsing a rental store inthe early 2000s, which "plays" the .ISO for a complete viewing experience. Add optional scanline emulation and the ability to view DVD booklet scans before launching the .ISO and you've got the best of *all* worlds.

Well considering that Matryoshka files which is the name of the file with the extension MKV are just an AVI or MP4 packed inside of a container with the potential for multiple subtitle files or multiple audio files to be included in it there's no reason to use a Matryoshka unless you intend to have multiple audio or subtitle files included . So that's great advice if you're just going to be watching movies in your native language and don't need a subtitle to go with it but I would recommend if you are talking about Japanese anime or foreign language films with subtitles and potentially the original audio as well as an English dub to instead go MKV in order to make use of those additional features especially if the media server you using is Plex as it handles those file formats natively

Piracy is a funny word made up by people who don't own something, but want to force you to pay for it. Lets examine this topic a bit. No one owns words, sounds numbers or the air we breath. It would be illogical for your neighbor to say that he owns all the air that is on his land and then demands you pay to breath "HIS AIR" when it floats over your home. Same with words, sounds and numbers. No One owns them, they are community property. Someone can own the container they are stored in, but nothing beyond that. More specifically, I can own a movie or music DISK because it is real and physical, but the movie and music itself is nothing more than binary code, 1's and 0's. Further, music is words and sounds. Who owns words and sounds? NO ONE, they are community property. It does not matter what order someone puts those words in and what sounds they make with them. No one owns words, sounds or numbers. Of course you can choose to pay someone for something that they do not own if you want to. I do purchase music sometimes because I want to support the artist (Tom MacDonald is one), but no one is under any moral obligation to do so. It is not stealing if the item does not exist in the physical realm or if it is community property. On one final note. When I buy a movie, I make NO agreement to use MY movie in any particular way. That is MY movie, because I traded part of MY life (In the form of money) and I am under NO moral obligation to use it according to someone elses rules. Movie studios can KMA. In closing, no one cares if you choose to use the term "Piracy" and by extension legitimize the coercion that movie studios attempt to use on the public. It is not a moral dilemma either way. Cheers and good day.

Well the video title should have been : "How to make a low quality copy of your physical media". As you said, there are meny ways to do that but the real challenge is how to do this and end up with a copy identical to the original.

I will show this in my next video but to make a 50GB copy of your Blu-ray I don't think is very realistic. But thanks for watching and for the comment!

I can't imagine needing to save space. It's so dang cheap. I have like 112tb free right now. I make full direct copies. No loss of quality at all

I guess as an IT professional I value simple solutions that I can manage and keep backed up but if you have the space and don't mind keeping up with a monster, more power to ya. Thanks for watching, much more to come soon...

An old claim/post from Sat Jun 05, 2010 7:32 am, I wonder why there have been no updates on the subject in 14 years? Thanks for the heads up...

I use MKV because of Subtitles
@GTKTheater3 ай бұрын
I will post more soon, with the latest versions of this software you can add the subs as MP4 or MKV. Thanks for watching!

That’s the exact same reason I use MKV. Subtitles not burned in.

This is still a thing? Cool! I used to rip them many years ago. I haven't had an optical drive in more than7 years, though. Actually, that is technically not true- I have a laptop drive scavenged from a dead computer in a box somewhere that may work if I put it in an external enclosure. I'll pass for now.

Yeah, my newer systems don't have optical drives as well, so I think I will keep one around until I run out of movies to copy. Thanks for watching
