Anyone have a good source that explains how to setup and find safe media. Computer literacy is not my strong point.

Buy Blurays and rip them to your machine. From there copy them into Jellyfin.

You will need a Bluray reader, Handbrake and MakeMKV

@possiblylinux127 @Bluefalcon

In this order:

  1. Rip the BluRay-Disk (or DVD) with MakeMKV, you will got the film with all languages and subtitles in one MKV-File;
  2. Shrink the MKV-File with Handbrake and save it as H264/H265 or better as AV1 (better because open-source and the future).

Do not use AV1 or at least don't use it as of now as it isn't supported my most devices. I think there is exactly one phone that supports it as of now

I know the nVidia Shield doesn't have it, and I'm not replacing that any time soon.

Eh, Chromecast has AV1 and so do some smart TVs already. If that is your primary watching platform, encode away in AV1 and get an Arc A380 for the rest. It will also massively decrease encoding times.
