  • HandBrake

    HandBrake's main development repository

    MakeMKV is what most people use to create 1:1 copies of the discs digitally. 4K discs are very large (usually 50-80GB), so some people also opt to run it through HandBrake to shrink it down a bit. There are several things you'll need to do first before successfully ripping 4K discs (including getting a compatible 4K optical drive), so I'd recommend reading through MakeMKV's UHD FAQ if you're interested in going that route.

    Audio & Subtitle Track Changer for Plex

    Plex (at least right now and from what I've experienced) doesn't recognize the default track flag, it just plays the firstmost audio track. The best and most permanent solution would be to re-map the audio tracks, but an easier option would be PastaTool

  • Appwrite
