Within a few moments, your Plex server should detect the new files (if you have it configured to do so), and you should see the movie/show appear in the Plex UI (this is the web UI): I recently set up a NAS drive with Plex Server support, which I've been meaning to write an article about. Once you're done, move the files to your Plex server's folder path. Tab, Paste, Backspace, until you're done. Paste the filename and then hit backspace to change the episode number.

Copy the text of the file name without the extension (e.g. The fastest approach I've found is to open the destination folder and rename the first file. You can try and get Handbrake to do this from the start but I've never had much success with that. Once the disc is finished, the last step is to modify the file names so they're in a format Plex prefers. It's taking about 8 minutes per 45 minute episode: In my case I think the limiting factor is the relatively cheap Dell DVD player I'm using.
#HANDBRAKE RIP DVD MOVIE#
How long it takes to rip a particular movie or tv show episode depends on your CPU, DVD disc speed, and hard disk/SSD speed. You can view the current status of the queue by clicking on Queue. In my example, there are 6 episodes of a TV show on the disc, so I'm going to queue them up so I don't have to manually mess with each one. If this were a movie, there would probably just be the one file, and Handbrake is pretty good at automatically selecting the right track based on length. Once you've configured things the first time, you shouldn't need to do it again.Īt this point you're ready to queue up the files you want to rip. With subtitles, if you pick Default but not Burn In then you'll have the option of turning them on, but they won't always be there.
#HANDBRAKE RIP DVD 1080P#
Remember for standard DVDs there's no sense trying to get 1080p or 4k quality because it's just not there on the disc. You also should pick quality and default subtitle selection. You need to specify the default folder where you'll output files (assuming you want to use the Add All option I'm about to show, which is really nice for tv shows with a bunch of episodes per disc). Next, if this is the first time you're running handbrake, there are a few preferences you need to set. If nothing is shown there, make sure you have a media DVD in the drive and that AnyDVD is running and has finished scanning the disc. You should see something like this.Ĭhoose the DVD drive which is typically the last option. Libdvdread: Device E:\ inaccessible, CSS authentication not available. Ibdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
#HANDBRAKE RIP DVD INSTALL#
Just run this command to install handbrake from an administrator shell/command prompt:
#HANDBRAKE RIP DVD FREE#
Handbrake is free AnyDVD is free for 21 days then you need a license.

Handbrake drives the process anydvd works behind the scenes to decode the DVD so handbrake can read it. To get started with ripping DVDs, you need handbrake and anydvd. I have a list of some of my tools I've installed with Chocolatey here. You can install these two things from their web sites, but I find Chocolatey to be much nicer. And if you are in the "we only stream" camp, and you've ever had some content you had access to suddenly disappear because the owner of the content decided they were getting a better deal from HuluflixPrime than NetBOGoMax then you understand how having your own private media server can be nice, too. I figure most new parents these days are just using streaming content from day one, but you never know. Also, if you have children, and they want to watch the same shows over and over but they never put the discs away (assuming you still have such things in your house, of course), this also solves that problem. If you've ever wanted to watch a movie or show that you already own, without having to deal with the discs, and it's not on one of your various streaming services, you understand the value. If you're not familiar with it, it basically lets you have your own Netflix hosted on a computer in your house that you can watch from anywhere. I'm a big fan of Plex and have a lifetime subscription.
