I'm one of those hipsters who doesn't use streaming services. I did, a while ago, but I quit using them because the experience is kind of awful, and I'm happier now for it. I collect physical media...
Is there a program (or suite) available on Linux that makes it as easy as possible to rip physical discs? I’m dreaming of a process where I just pop in a disc and it spits out a file, and I don’t have to fuck with shell scripts or manually triggering anything
After reading some more, this is nearly bang on what I was looking for. Love that it auto-detects the media type (audio/video/data). I have a lil docker app server already, hopefully it plays nice with my external disc reader. Thanks again!
Sure thing! I haven’t tested it myself, and I think there are addons or extensions or things-built-on-top-of-this that attempt to give you a nice web interface for managing what is being ripped and how it’s being named and cataloged, but last I saw (months ago), it wasn’t perfect and still required some babysitting.
That’s why you rip it

Yes, one tool I know of is: https://github.com/automatic-ripping-machine/automatic-ripping-machine/
Its a system you can run that let’s you simply put a disk in and automatically rip and organize it.
This looks exactly like what I wanted, tysm!
