btfs VS automatic-rippi

Something in a similar vein: BTFS, mount a torrent file (or magnet link) as a read only drive https://github.com/johang/btfs

It's really good, and use it a lot of times

Some systems are more appropriate than just those options, but it requires player cooperation.

For instance on Android, NOVA Video Player supports torrent streaming. Or btplay from https://github.com/johang/btfs .

The way they work is better for the network, because it asks only for the N next MB from current position to be available ASAP, but the rest can be downloaded randomly to help the network like a standard client would do.

This project still seems alive to my pleasant surprise.

I never had it fully working because the last time I tried, I was too focused on using VMs or Docker and not just dedicating a small, older computer to it, but I think about it often and may finally just take the time to set up a station to properly rip all the Columbia House CDs I bought when I was a teen and held on to.

I really like ARM (automatic ripping machine)

Put a DVD/blu ray in a drive and it automatically determines the title, starts ripping, then pops the disc out when it's done.

There's options for post-ripping transcoding also.

It's a pain to get set up initially, but the Automatic Ripping Machine[1] plus Jellyfin/Plex/etc[2] makes for a great combination.

You could use multiple drives in parallel. Also: https://github.com/automatic-ripping-machine/automatic-rippi...

The title has been substantially altered by a mod; the original submission was: "Automatic Ripping Machine: Headless Blu-ray/DVD/CD Ripper" (the actual page title is "Automatic Ripping Machine | Headless | Blu-Ray/DVD/CD"). No date was attached, since the project is still regularly updated: https://github.com/automatic-ripping-machine/automatic-rippi... . Mods, wherever possible, please do not change titles to provide less information; the new title, "Automatic Ripping Machine (2016)", does not convey very much.
