See the section "Additional Resources" for more info.īatch Rip Actions for Automator is an application that provides Actions and Workflows to automate the rip and encode process. Then, return to this tutorial after you have become comfortable with the process and have been successful doing it manually. If you are new to any of the concepts presented in this tutorial, I highly recommend engaging in some of the fantastic forum threads on the macrumors and handbrake forums to help get you started. It is NOT intended to be A BEGINNERS GUIDE to DVD/BD encoding. The focus of this tutorial is how to AUTOMATE your workflow. Note: This tutorial assumes you have some familiarity with Mac OS X and the ripping/encoding process. Auto-tagging TV Show Files with iTunes Metadata.Auto-tagging Movie Files with iTunes Metadata.Using Batch Encode to Automate HandBrake Encoding.Using Batch Rip to Automate DVD & Blu-Ray Backup.This tutorial is broken up into components that can be used individually or together to create one, simple, automated batch workflow. Virtually anything is possible with automation. All you need to do now is the tagging, but why should you do it? It's a computer after all … why not automate that as well! If you want to get really fancy, you can take your workflow to the next level by using folder actions or Noodlesoft's Hazel to backup your rips, add the finished files to all the iTunes Libraries on your network and stream em' to an Apple TV. You can even set it do multiple encodes if you'd like an iPad version, Android version, though you owe it to yourself to get an iPhone, and an Apple TV 1080p version. Set a repeating encode schedule, and at midnight HandBrakeCLI will encode each track within the min/max duration you set in your workflow. If you’ve got Mac with two or three optical drives connected, fill em' up and you’ll save yourself some trips. Just insert a disc and it will rip automagically. The good news is that most of these tasks can be easily automated to remove the manual intervention required. Using a GUI tool is a simple task if you do one occasionally, but a lot of us have amassed large collections that would take days, weeks, months or even years to complete.Īnd, if you’ve ever tried to encode an entire season of TV episodes you know how laborious a project this can be as well: Insert a DVD, rip the disc, choose your encode settings, select and add each title to the queue, process the file, add iTunes metadata rinse and repeat for each of the discs in the season … and don't even get me started on manually doing this with Blu-ray. Backing up a DVD or Blu-Ray library can be an arduous, time consuming task.
