plex-processor

Plex Processor is an simple, cross-platform method of converting DVD images, or any kind of movie files to Plex compatable files. The conversion process uses Handbrake to transcode the files.

The conversion process is not directly tied to Plex, and can be used with any media server platform.

Movies

The script uses the Handbrake --main-feature setting to automatically detect the primary title on the DVD image.

TV Shows

Tracks on DVD images that are within the duration parameters will be converted in order that they appear on the DVD and named in sequential episode numbers.
