Confirmation of what docker-makemkv does

[crankygeologist]

I would like to remove the computer I use in the process of transcoding my Blu-ray discs. So, with this software, I can install the Docker application on my Synology, install the docker-makemkv container, connect my Blu-ray optical drive to my Synology via USB, setup the container parameters and, without the use of a computer, rip the movie I purchased directly to my NAS. Is that correct?

Yes, your are correct :)

Wow. Thanks so much for responding to my ignorant question. ;-) How is the performance? I assume buying a NAS with a substantial CPU is critical.

The performance should be the same as if MakeMKV runs natively on a Linux system.
I would say that ripping a Blu-ray disc is more I/O intensive than CPU intensive. So if you can have a USB3 connection it would help speeding up the ripping. And yes, having a good CPU and a good amount of RAM is always useful, especially if you want to run a couple of Docker apps...
