This, plus self hosting jellyfin and *arr and I basically have a better service, with no ads, nice UI, access from all my devices, offline access, 4K resolution, music streaming. Basically the all-inclusive premium plan, not exactly for free, but for a very reasonable cost.

I dump Blu-rays to my NAS with zero re-encoding. Even for older shows the quality is leaps and bounds superior to any streaming service with plenty of bandwidth.

My brother in Christ please get Handbrake. Your storage space will go much farther if you’re at least re-encoding after the fact.

Some people are just insane and swear they can see a quality difference between compressed and uncompressed.

I think it’s bunk, but it’s not my storage space.

The day I can re-encode losslessly without a bigger file is the day I consider doing this.
