Hope that all that provides more answers than it does cause more questions. Media conversion is like a whole art unto itself. If/when storage space becomes a problem/concern, then you may want to look at compressing the source files, to x264 or x265.Ĭompressing/converting is always a balance between quality and size, and once past the basics comes down to personal prefernce. Long story short, if you have plenty of disk space, I would use makemkv to rip, then you rename the files according to plex naming standards, and store them on your nas. dvd/blurays often have multiple audio streams, you should make sure you select/unselect the ones you do/don’t want to keep. You should look for some setting that does ‘audio pass through’ of existing audio streams. The player/device is normally responsible for upscaling or filling the screen, as long as the file wasn’t encoded with actual black bars/borders. generally, you would want to use any ‘auto’ or ‘same as source’ settings for aspect ratio/framerate/audio.

If your dvds are old, there are probably a lot of 4:3 content (pre-widescreen) which will be displayed on a wide screen tv with black side bars.

I would suggest google, which should lead to probably thousands of guides on the minutia of dvd ripping and converting. Makemkv does not modify the original content, and there are a ton of different things that are all a bit to complex to talk about here.

the same for mp4 or any other file type (other than the ripping the whole disk to ISO which is not supported by plex) No, extras will all need to be separate files. Makemkv does only rip and placing the source content into a mkv container (does not convert or make the content smaller) Not familiar with winx, but I’m sure it does both ripping and converting (to smaller files).

To avoid server load, you can use plex clients that do support mpeg2 (like perhaps roku/shield and maybe appletv?) alternatively this is where converting/re-compressing the video to another codec such as x264 or x265 (both of which have their own inherent plus/minus’s) as you go, might be helpful (but also adds a lot more time and effort). That sure seems like child’s play compared to this.Īhhh, ripping dvds, welcome to 20 years ago!įor dvd rips, no probably not - edit: actually due to dvd native codec of mpeg2, not all plex clients can directly play that, and as such it will be converted on demand by plex server. I feel like I did 20+ years ago when I was investing jpg vs tiff and other photo issues.

My trial rips (about 10) appear to be losing surround sound resulting in stereo instead. I reripped a couple times with different settings, but same results. One of the trial rips I did (Highlander movie) resulted in black bars at the top/bottom and sides. Ideal would be some suggested settings for WinX DVD (or maybe MakeMVK). Can anyone point me to a good source to read more. I am a bit overwhelmed on specs such as frame rate, video codec / audio codec / bitrates, etc. If I rip to an MKV container do all the extras go into the one file? Is this an advantage over ripping to mp4? I purchased WinX DVD Ripper Platinum - but after more reading it appears MakeMVK may be used by more. I have tried to read a lot over the past few days, but am hoping for a bit of guidance to reduce the inevitable learning curve.Īny pros / cons of using the TV client vs Fire Cube vs Blu Ray Player (vs Xbox in rec room)?

but don’t care about subtitles - except for those that are part of the base movie (i.e. I would like to keep the extras - such as deleted scenes or “how the movie was made” documentary. When I rip I am more interested in quality then reduced storage - both video and audio. (I was going to use our Synology but found the DS413 is not supported.) we do not plan on streaming the movies to iPads or phones - just the Living Room (or later Rec Room) systems. My husband is willing to put the DVDs in deep storage (or maybe Goodwill) if I can rip them, so I have installed the Plex server on our desktop computer. We have a decent size (500?) DVD collection that we are hoping not to pile back in the room in order to leave the cabinet space for Blu Rays and (now) 4K movies. I am a US resident and we are just completing our total living room redo - the center of which is an LG OLED77c9 with an Amazon Fire Cube, new 4K Blu Ray, and 7.1 surround sound connected to a Yamaha receiver - all connected via Ethernet.
