You have a lot of movies to transfer to your hard drive for viewing on your netbook. You don’t currently have any tools, but you have a DVD drive available. You’re hoping to find free software that works with Xubuntu.

I’m really confused about how to set this up. I tried following the instructions and ended up installing AcidRip DVD Ripper from the Software Center. I’ll find out if it works.

Search for your friend online, check the link for an open-source version of HandBrake with an Ubuntu release.

Handbrake doesn’t support direct ripping unless the file is already stripped. I strongly suggest using MakeMKV. It performs exceptionally well with DVD and Blu-Ray rips. MakeMKV preserves the original video quality while letting you select specific elements to transfer to your computer—subtitles, audio tracks, commentary, and even special features can be kept or removed as needed. You can also separate the special features into individual files. The software never re-encodes the video; it simply packages the original file with your chosen audio and subtitles. This approach keeps everything fast and efficient. DVDs typically require a few minutes, while Blu-Rays may take 15–20 minutes, depending on your optical drive and hard drive speed. I follow a two-step method: initially rip the movie with your desired audio and subtitles using MakeMKV, then convert them to a smaller size with Handbrake. For DVDs, it’s crucial to enable de-interlacing during this step since most players display interlaced video, which can cause issues if played directly. Some media players can handle de-interlacing in real time (like Media Player Classic), but it’s safer to permanently remove the interlacing with Handbrake. The combination of MakeMKV and Handbrake gives you full control over quality and features, making your movie collection customizable. Note: MakeMKV has a Linux beta available (version 1.8.0 at the time of this update).

I need to consider MakeMKV again. I realized I also had HandBrake installed.

Yes, MakeMKV is amazing. Did not realize they had a Linux version which is why I did not recommend it
