This weekend I've decided to finish up a project I started last weekend. Namely, ripping all DVDs I own to disc images and encoding individual episodes/movies into h.264.

It's a pretty tedious project, given my DVD drive is a tad on the poky side (2MB/s reads), and there's instability ahead to make matters worse.

SO, one hour to rip a disc to an image, followed by a long encoding process that uses the two-pass option in Handbrake. :specialed:

Any possible way to automate that so you just have to put a disc in and away it goes?

Yeah, I use the batch mode in Handbrake. Though I rip the discs first then just use the images locally. It's much faster.

So in other words, you're going to make your poor PC and DVD burner overheat on the weekend.

Sounds good to me!

Just don't burn out your DVD burner. Been through two myself already.

Naturally I didn't get any more done since I've been occupied with Trackmania United Forever and Garry's Mod

Yeah, I once had to master an entire ballet school's thing...

Three DVD burners went to the big inferno in the sky...

Well, technically speaking this doesn't require a lot of effort... just a lot of time on your hands.

If you have two PC's, it's not so much of a hassle. :\ That's why I usually have things run while I'm out/doing something else.
