What to do with ISOs? - eviltoast

I just got into usenet and some of the files downloaded are ISOs. I’m trying to figure out the best way to convert them to mp4s so that I can play them through plex. I’m running on a headless arch server (Manjaro), and I’d prefer to keep the conversion there if possible.

Anyone have experience with this?

    ISOs are disc images. You’d have to mount them with something like Daemon Tools. To be honest, it’s been awhile since I pirated anything but movies, so there’s probably a better way to do it now. ISOs are also what we use in emulation when the console in question used discs, so I have a bunch of ISOs of discs I backed up to use in emu.
