Automatic Ripping Machine (ARM) is a headless Linux application that detects when an optical disc is inserted, identifies it as video, audio, or data, and automatically rips and transcodes it using MakeMKV, HandBrake, or abcde. It supports multiple simultaneous drives, ejects discs when finished, and can notify media servers like Emby or send push notifications.
Use cases
- automatically rip DVDs and Blu-rays to a media library
- rip audio CDs to FLAC or MP3 with tagging
- back up data discs as ISO images
- run a headless disc-ripping server with multiple optical drives
- notify Emby to rescan after a rip completes
- batch-rip a stack of discs without manual interaction
When to choose
- you want fully automatic, hands-off ripping of optical media on Linux
- you run a home media server and want to digitize your disc collection
- you need to rip from multiple drives concurrently in a headless setup
When to avoid
- you need a graphical ripping tool on Windows or macOS
- you only need to transcode existing video files without optical discs
- your use case involves encrypted streams that MakeMKV cannot handle
