I have over 600-700 dvds and blu-ray videos and have been looking for a simple and easy process of digitizing these videos to either an internal or external hard drive. This video is excellent and has answered all my questions. Thanks.
Thanks. Now I have some idea of what to buy. And I am a very thankful boomer that you actually walked through the installation and set up of software, as well as what cables/ accessories I might need.
Many thanks for your video, been waiting ages to find a way of converting my own dvds to watch on electronic devices for when I’m on my holidays.Very straightforward and easy to understand thanks once again👍
Very well done. Simple and easy to follow, just like it should be. There's nothing about this video that I did not understand. It's gonna take me a while to digitize ALL my DVDs!
An excellent tutorial. I just wanted to add that I compress (using VLC) and make smaller files and have filled up a 4TB Samsung QVO 860 SSD. My Roku reads all files from the SSD (at capacity) and plays them flawlessly. I know most have said 2TB is Roku's top tier, but my 4TB SSD runs perfectly on it, even filled to capacity. This may have something to do with less power for an SSD, though.
Great video, and thanks for the advice on the drive size. I have a ton of discs and probably would have bought something a lot larger than 2 TB then wondered why it wouldn’t load.
This was very informative and will simplify taking movies with us in our 5th wheel trailer. I did find that I had to convert my external hard drive to exFAT format (MAC OS) because the file sizes were too large otherwise. Once that was done the conversion worked great. Thank you for the tutorial!
Quick Update - Found that my Samsung TV does not read exFAT drives. It prefers NTFS, which MAC OS does not natively write to. Fortunately there is a utility called NTFS for Mac online from Paragon Software (paragon-software.com). A $15 downloadable (includes 14 day trial) and now I'm up and running. Confirmed that the Samsung TV can now read the drive and the movies play great!
What a GREAT help. I have been trying to find a way to record my DVD onto USP to use on my projector. I am showing Christmas movies in my yard this year.
This was a great and simple explanation, to an easy to use conversion program, that works amazingly! Since this program does work so well(Completely hassle free, unlike VLC), and the MKV files now play on Windows media players without any issue, I'm in the process of FINALLY being able to digitize my extensive DVD collection! I do have one question though. Why do you like to create a separate folder for each movie(2:34)? It just seems like all those folders would be a waste of space. And since you need all the space you can get(since MKV files are so large), I just wondered if there was a specific reason for it or is that just a personal preference of yours? Thx again for the great and very helpful video!
It doesn't need to be a folder. I move them to a single list so that they show up as a clean list on the Roku. From the folder I am able to run the conversion to compress those files before I put them on an SSD to connect to the Roku.
@@SeleTraining Ok Thanks. I'm just starting my "conversion journey" lol, so I haven't even looked into compression or exactly which other programs I'll need to use to view them later(Likely Windows apps for now). I'm about to watch your next video on this subject, and then once I give it a try I'm sure I'll bother you again with a couple more questions, for clarification's sake! Thanks again for the helpful info!
Wow you made it so simple. 👍🏼 Always wondered. Now lets think, say it takes 30 min per video digitizing, how many days it would take to do a 800 + collection 🧐.....good grief 😂. Cheers 🍻

Thank you for providing this no nonsense tutorial. I have upwards of 1500 DVDs including Blu-ray and Blu-ray 3D movies. Often I won't recognize a title without looking at the case. Is there a way I can add info to a digitized copy's title at the time of copying to help recognize the movie or will I simply have to rename the file afterwards? I currently have my collection alphabetized in specific genres. How can I view a play list of movies in their respective genres once they're digitized?
hi I just don't know there to start I have about 2,500 & 3,000 movies I took them out of the case to save room I have all the names in a book But now it takes to long to see if I have doubles can you help JACK here
Hi Sele, I noticed in your description you mention the Roku Ultra in which I just purchased their latest model, I just want to make sure if I option for the MKV format over MP4 will Roku support the MKV? I plan on copying my Movie collection to my NAS and streaming to my Roku via Plex. Thanks
Well, what if you want mp4 files and not MKV. I tried to watch a movie that was ripped on MKV and Windows Media Player couldn't read it. It didn't read the codec.
Take a look at this other video: ua-cam.com/video/Z9xarB6S3cQ/v-deo.html. It shows you how you can use Handbrake to convert the MKV to MP4. I do that in a 2 step process for all of my movies.
I haven't tried to see how it works with subtitles but I believe some DVD's contain multiple language versions such that you can convert the one of your choice.
Hello, I just came across your viedo. That you for the very detailed instruction. I did have one issue & hope you can help. My video converted just as instructed, however, It has no audio. Is there something maybe I forgot to select?
I've been looking for tutorials of this kind. I want to do this for Plex on my Roku Ultra, so that I can watch my movies when I travel to see a friend. Is this possible?
You can load the movies to Plex but if you have an external hard drive the Roku will show all of your movies in the media player where you can play them directly.
Hello Thanks for the great video. I am trying to copy dvds consisting of 5 episodes in each cd (24 mins each). Both softwares you mentioned read that dvds, but it keeps on disconnecting and connecting every now and then. The usb is wire well connected and the cd is well inserted. I also receive a windows notification (autoplwy) saying the dvd is inserted once again. Im using microsoft surface pro laptop. Did all the steps you did, but using a different dvd/cd hard drive burner. I should not that it converted some files.
You probably have an issue witht he USB connection. It may be the wrong USB 2/3 type or the USB port on your computer is not set to the correct speed. That's often what makes the DVD disconnect.
I own a bunch of seasons from my favorite shows rather than carry all the dads around, I'd like to make compilation dvds with select episodes, kind of like a mix tape with my favorite songs. Will this help me?
Did Exactly as you stated and everything is great...except...when I go into the file on the external drive, how come the picture is just a default icon instead of the movie icon like yours shows?
Hello. Could you please help me in finding a response to my inquiry that is how can i generate excel workbook from templates ? Is there any free add-on can help? Or something like that. Thanks in advance
If you have a newer version of Excel for Office 365 you can select New from the menu when you open Excel and it gives you a long list of templates to select from to create a new spreadsheet. Also, if you create a spreadsheet you can save it as a template by choosing the Save as Type: Excel Template.
Can you save the files to Dropbox instead of a physical hard drive? I have like 2 TB of storage I’m paying for already on Dropbox. Then theoretically cast to TV to watch? ;/
I am wanting to put on a flash drive so I can watch on the cars DVD player will this work? I also have an iMac and wondering if any external cd drive will work. I just want to do regular dvds. Thanks for the help
It will work as long as you have the correct file format that works with your cars DVD player and it has a USB connection. The external DVD R/W I recommended in the video will work with Mac or PC.
There are a number of options to convert a music CD to mp3 files. I haven’t reviewed any yet but look for an mp3 converter. The Roku will also play Those files along with movies.
No chance. I had an external drive full of films that suddenly became corrupted and unplayable a few years ago. Digital files may suit casual film viewers or once-watch movies but proper collectors and cinephiles will always want to stick with physical media.
I don’t believe either of these tools will let you combine videos. The only option I see is to use a video editing tool or online site that lets you edit and splice the videos into one.
Can I HDMI cable the Storage Drive into the smart tv, and use a tablet to interface with the storage drive? Something has to RUN the storage drive right? Or are their smart TV apps that can do that?
HDMI will only connect video and sound from a device with a player. You can connect the hard drive to a smart TV using USB if your TV has one and then a multimedia app on the smartTV can play the videos. Alternatively you can connect the hard drive to your PC and an HDMI cable from your PC to the TV. Then use your PC to play videos to the TV.
@@SeleTraining Ok. I do need something "PLAYING" the DVD movie file of course. So there ARE multimedia apps for a smart TV that can USB connect (Still not sure why the connector cable cannot be HDMI since it has better resolution?) to the storage drive, read the files/play the film. So I can use the APP on the Smart TV to interface/control the hardwired (I am old school and prefer hardwire whenever I can) storage drive via my smart TV remote?
@@azuldefiler674 Yes. I have a smart TV with Roku built-in and I can plug a hard drive to the USB port on the TV and then run the multimedia app that comes with Roku to see all my videos and play them from a menu. Many smart TV's come with a USB port and an option somewhere in the menus or with an app to play those videos. HDMI is not a communication port like USB. It only serves video output so an app can't control data with it. You'll still get full resolution with USB and it will match the source resolution of the video file on your hard drive. With my Roku TV I use the multimedia app with my Roku remote. That lets me scroll though the videos on my hard drive and play them. This is one reason I recommend the Roku Ultra because it has the best apps and best remote experience compared to others I have used in the past.
It uses a standard driver so it should be automatic. You can go to Device Manager and scan for new devices and it should find it. Make sure you have the correct USB connection
