Re: Captions - for Plex

Great. Thank you. That is tomorrow night's and this weekend's project. You indicated that they have optimized Handbrake for the M Series processors? I have a new M4 Pro MacBook Pro. It has been so long since I used handbrake last, are there any tips or gotchas that I should be aware of?

Re: Captions - for Plex

TV is Apple TV
Mobile would be iPad (2020 or later) and iPhone (current gen) both in and out of home.

Re: Captions - for Plex

What would be the recommended settings for handbrake to accomplish these tasks? For optimizing for tv and mobile?

Re: Captions - for Plex

The only issue that I have is that these are Optimization Versions that Plex is transcoding, I am not running HandBreak manually on these so that I keep my high quality rips. So I am not sure how to solve this issue.

Re: Captions - for Plex

I used the MediaInfo App as suggested. It appears that the captions are in the Original MKV file. I see a "Text" section listed. However, I wonder if the Plex Optimized versions are stripping this out. I am not sure... hope that someone can help me review the data below, I don't see a Text...

Captions - for Plex

This may not be exactly a MakeMKV question but here it goes. I had made MKVs of many BluRay Episodes, however it appears that PLEX is not displaying the subtitles/captions for them (not even as an option). Is there something that I possibly missed doing when making the MKV files? I am trying to figu...

Re: MakeMKV - Before Ripping Specify File Names

Where do you see the option? For example, in the screenshot above, I would like to change the name to be more descriptive that would work with PLEX. Many of the disks I have just get named {Disk Name}_tXX.mkv where XX is a serial number for the tracks. Screenshot 2024-12-06 at 19.58.12.png Screensho...

Stop MacOS from Asking To Access External Drive

Is there a way in MacOS 15 to stop having it ask to allow MakeMKV to access the Bluray Drive after each disk is inserted?

Each time I change the disk in the bluray drive and go to rip the disk, MakeMKV/MacOS prompts to allow access to external device/

Re: Getting Started (macOS)

How do I identify what items correspond to which special feature, movie or episode? Are there easy tools or resources that I could use to help simplify this craziness?

Getting Started (macOS)

I have a collection of BluRay and DVDs that I am looking to Rip so that I can store them on my Synology NAS and play them via Plex to my devices. I had gotten a recommendation on using MakeMKV to convert the discs to digital files. Besides installing the MakeMKV software, is there anything that I ne...
