I know the majority opinion is not to do it for various reasons, but basically I started to backup the majority of my dvd collection that I created over the years since I have the time and they were just collecting dust. Turns out though I guess I’m doing it “wrong” or at least not in the original quality since I used handbrake instead of makemkv. I’m already 160 dvds in and about 40 more to go, is it worth, quality wise, going back and actually ripping? Is there a way to compare them? To clairify, I’ll be using makemkv from now on for the rest.
were only talkin 200 dvds? download that shit.
Haha not going to lie should’ve done that in the beginning I’m just new. Felt this was safer and said “screw it, might as well use them.”
i had ~1800 to rip at one point… after a few hundred i realized that the time in the garage had not been kind to the dvds, many were warped. i ended up downloading most if not all of them, and then many again years later for the higher quality blue rays. many of those movies you can now obtain faster than ripping.
my only lament are the rare titles i can no longer purchase or find on the high seas… i had a few shows that just simply do not exist in digital format anymore.
one title im looking for, if anyone is curious; ‘Doctor, Doctor’ starring Matt Frewer in the early 90s.
Holy jesus 1800 discs and god I hope you or someone else finds it. I might have to just grow a pair and research how to download safely because I still have my blu ray collection to go through too
its so easy to build your own seedbox and just throw any number of torrents at it…
i am using a linux server with a few open source containers (deluge + gluetun) … problem soooooolved.
