and tagged it with Blu-rays Media management Physical media Yes, DVDs and blu-ray still suck but having to say ”no, we can’t watch that movie on this tv because it doesn’t have an AppleTV connected, so let’s go to the other room and watch it there” is worse and there are solutions.
2020 is the year when I start buying plastic discs again.

and tagged it with Blu-rays Dealing with home media This post is just for my own sake. I’ll probably write this up better once I’ve reached a final conclusion.
The workflow is as follows:
transcode-video --add-audio all <videofile>It’s not perfect and it needs some tweaking. Right now I’m contemplating whether to use detect crop or from Melton’s utilities.

and tagged it with Blu-rays Dealing with home media I’m trying to rip the video (and audio) from Blu-rays1 into an iTunes and AppleTV friendly format, while preserving subtitles and, this is key, not burning them in. I’ll write a detailed post on my needs, findings and workflow soon but right now I just want to throw the ball out to you.
I’m currently using a mixture of MakeMKV, Don Melton’s video transcode scripts, Subler and iDentify 2. The workflow I’m currently using requires me to add external .srt-files for subtitles, since I don’t want to burn them into the video.
Do you, dear reader, have any experience with this? Any suggestions for me? Please get in touch! (E-mail: henrik [@] henrikcarlsson [dot] se, @synvila on twitter or just send a webmention to this post.)
I’m making some progress on my media encoding problem. If I replace Melton’s scripts with Handbrake, I’m able to keep the subtitles.
