handbrakecli script file for ripping dvd/tv show series

[dogger]

Looking for the above?

i have a few dvd's (i.e. tv show series) that I want to rip - each show/title into it's how m4v/universal file.

Your best bet is to have a browse around the CLI forum.

Here's the linux bash script (rough) that I made to encode DVD/Episodes. lsdvd is required as it uses it to read the DVD titles. I start the script a boot, it detects when a DVD is inserted, encodes it, and then moves it to a shared directory. When completed it ejects the disc and loops back to detecting if one is inserted again. The variable mintime is set to 20, all titles greater then 20 minutes will be encoded. This is a rough script that I just made yesterday, it is a little rough around the edges and any help is appreciated. Hope this helps you out.
