Why Can’t You Copy DVDs to NAS Normally?

[DJEmily]

As a DVD collection owner, you will choose to rip DVD movies for more convenient playback. And if you have a NAS device, you probably would like to copy DVD collection to NAS drive to allow you to view via streamers. But How can I copy my DVDs to my NAS server?

Umm, set up samba and mount it is a network mapped drive in whatever OS you use? That's typically what a NAS does.

use a DVD ripper to convert to ISO, and must be copied & stored in any NAS.

I Use DVDFab on my desktopPC, but someone suggest to use handbrake or ffmpeg

I use DVDFab and sometimes now redfox as anydvd is gone and hanbrake on my one desktop-PC
DVDFab is a must with nvidia card as you have to rip to HEVC and want to speed up the process.

yes in my test, I use 1/2 (half) time with DVDfab that I use with ffmpeg. but you can do your own test.
