Hello, this is your host Archer72 for Hacker Public Radio. In this episode, I share my overly complicated media ripping setup, and hope it helps someone.
First of all, I have revised my media ripping setup since HPR3294 - Update to MakeMKV to back up media
I’ve changed my mind about only using a terminal for ripping media, and it was time to make a change. Now, I start both MakeMKV and Handbrake from a remote GUI, either on my laptop or phone.
- VNC server for remote GUI
- virt-manager server
sudo apt install tigervnc-common- Remmina VNC

- Debian desktop
- VNC Client for Android
- NFS server on Raspberry Pi
- Remote for Intel mini PC Server
