Description

HandyMKV is a tool that is designed to automate the process of ripping discs using MakeMKV and then encoding the resulting files using Handbrake.

Why I Created HandyMKV

I found the process of manually ripping using MakeMKV and then encoding using HandBrake to be time consuming, disjointed, and error prone. I wanted a tool that would automate the process and provide a more user-friendly experience. Additionally, I wanted to offload the process from my main desktop computer to my home server which is headless and does not have a GUI. HandyMKV was created to address these needs.

As I developed HandyMKV, I found that I was able to add features that I found useful and that made the process faster and easier. I hope that others will find HandyMKV useful and that it will save them time and effort.
