Overview

Insert an optical disc (Blu-ray, DVD, CD) and checks to see if it's audio, video (Movie or TV), or data, then rips it.

See: https://b3n.org/automatic-ripping-machine for a more detailed breakdown of how the project started.

Supported Operating Systems

This is a small project with few maintainers. As such we do not have the time to support a large number of distributions, and system's are chosen for support by most common use. We officially support the following operating systems:

Operating System Versions
Ubuntu Desktop 20.04

The current main development effort is going into the Docker container, for minimal issues in deployment and setup use the provided docker image.

Please note that if you open an issue to ask for help, if the OS you are using is not on this list you will be asked to reimage and try again or your issue will be closed.

If you use an unsupported operating system and can't or don't want to reimage, that's okay! Please try our Docker image instead.
