- In this video i go over how to setup rip dvds with makemkv and using handbrake for hardware transcoding to make it possible to get dvds onto your plex or jellyfin server.

Solid video, super straight forward! I plan to rip all my parent's dvds so they can have a digital copy to access from their various devices.
This was a great tutorial, thanks. I just installed Plex in my desktop and was staring at my collection of DVDs and Blu Rays, wondering how I was going to get them from here to there. My desktop has a 14TB HDD so storage space won't be a problem. It also has an optical drive so I'm all set. My desktop is a gaming computer so it is not very power efficient so I will eventually build a Plex/NAS server with 4TB of storage in a RAID 2 setup that can be left on 24/7 without eating me out of house and home in electrical bills.
great job, clear and two the point. You answered my question about using the two applications together And transcoding on GPU.
BETWEEN MAKEMKV & HANDBRAKE, I CAN NEVER BURN THE ORIGINAL PHYSICAL DVD MENU. DO YOU KNOW HOW TO BURN THE DVD MENUS?
I LOVE SEEING THE DVD MENUS LOAD UP. THANKS FOR THIS TUTORIAL. SUPER HELPFUL!
Thanks for the straightforward content.
There are tradeoff's with GPU vs CPU encoding. While GPU encoding is typically faster, its also possible you get more artefacts and larger files sizes. CPU encoding while it takes longer, you have more options with this method if you can stand the longer encode times. When it comes to Bluray, unfortunately CPU encoding is way too long (up to a couple days in depending on your CPU) vs a couple hours with GPU.
Great stuff man
Thanks so much for this!
Good job, thanks for the refresher. I have been using this method for a few years now, and I burned my entire DVD collection of
100+ DVDs to an external hard drive. I don't have a graphics card (basic system) or a surround system, do you have any thoughts on using the "FAST" options in Handbrake? Oh, and I donated my entire DVD collection to the local library.
How do people get it down to 1-2 gb this only got a movie down to 7. 7 is good but even when I view the 1-2 gb ones the quality is still great.
Thanks for this guide though very cool and very helpful.
thank you! i think it really comes down to your settings you use for transcoding in handbrake. in the last i’ve used tdarr and had similar results to you where i was only cutting down a gig or so where others had great results. i think it’d all dependent on your media and options
@@BarmineTech I should have mentioned it's blu rays i'm transcoding. Thanks for the fast reply. I'm okay with this method, it's just gonna take a really long time to convert 500+ Blu Rays.
@@BarmineTech I did h265 the video file turned out to be less than h264. Problem solved!
Good video! :)
I like this guy
Here's my issue:
If I rip a DVD or BluRay, will that damage the physical disc at all?
Because, I don't want to put the disc in after I ripped it to no longer work on my disc player.
i’m am not aware of this causing any damage to the disk. this is a orettt standard method of just copying the files off the disk to a digital storage on the computer
thanks!! question, plz: what if the GPU doesn't appear on Handbrake's Settings? Just H264 or H265-stuff, but nothing suggesting a GPU. ughh...or there a System Setting that would allow that? MS-W10. tanx...
thanks man
Can’t you just rip dvds and put them on a USB flash drive to insert on your TV instead of all of the trouble of a plex server and all that?
it your tv supports that it should be fine
I don't get the advantage of makemkv. Why not just use handbrake?
make mkv is the program that actually gets the video files off the dvd. handbrake is to encode them to a different format
@@BarmineTech No, he has a valid question.
I think what he meant is that you can do everything directly through Handbrake.
Before checking your video in search of more tips, i just did that: Simply found the DVD through HB and was choosing the encoding options.
Tried to finish the process and resulted in a DVD of 4-5gbs to a 1.5gb mp4. No complications around it.
Could you elaborate if using the Makemkv process before HB can actually improve or make a difference to the output quality? As it is, seems like we can simply skip this step.
Wachu think?

EDIT:
I just remembered that Handbrake will not rip Oficial DVDs with a lock.
If thats the case I could understand using Makemkv before to rip the locked files, and then finishing with Handbrake.
just downloaded makemkv 9/15/24 and the application crashes at launch every time
i just did a fresh install and it works fine. did you add a registration key that is free on their forums? if not the program will not work
@@BarmineTech i crashes before i can even add it
restarted my machine and then was able to get it to take the key
