Hi everyone!
I have around 200 DVD (with movies) that I’d want to backup in order to save them from rotting or physical media disappearance.
My most powerful computer with a DVD drive is a 2012 MacBook Pro upgraded to 16gb of Ram with an SSD running Fedora 42.
If possible, I’d want to keep all the bonuses of the movies, but I could also just backup the movies if keeping the whole disc is too difficult.
My goal would be to keep the original quality.
Also 6-7 discs are already skipping scenes even if the disc shows no damage.
I’ve bought some of these discs 20 years ago with my teenager pocket money so I wouldn’t want to lose them.
Thanks for the help.
As I own these discs and nothing would be illegal in my country, I thought it would be better to post here instead of the piracy community.
Edit: I guess I’ll use Make MKV Beta as it seems to work well and VLC can open the MKV files. Thanks for your help!
Use handbrake and set it to used the Apple videotoolbox for hardware encoding. Looks good, smaller files, fast and easy. Almost everything encodes properly with this method but there are a small number of titles with interesting encryption that breaks with this method. Almost everything works this way though.
