This guide is comes in 3 parts:
- Ripping: getting the digital data decrypted and off the optical media onto your computer
- Encoding: putting the audio, video and subtitle components together in the right format
- Using: Setting up a home media server, and viewing your ripped files on myriad devices.
Only Part 1 is currently online. It’s a big topic, and I want the guides to be easy enough for beginners, but still complete enough that your finished product is AAA-grade (unlike what you see in video-streaming services). So please bear with me while I assemble and format the other 2 sections.
