A set of standalone Ruby command-line scripts that wrap HandBrake and FFmpeg to transcode, inspect, and convert video files. It focuses on shrinking Blu-ray and DVD rips into smaller, portable formats while preserving quality.
Use cases
- transcode blu-ray and dvd rips to smaller files
- convert mkv to mp4 without re-encoding
- detect crop values for a video
- batch shrink a movie collection while keeping quality
- wrap handbrake and ffmpeg with sensible defaults
When to choose
- you want opinionated, high-quality video transcoding from the command line
- you need to convert between Matroska and MP4 containers without re-encoding
- you work across Windows, Linux, and macOS with Ruby installed
When to avoid
- you need a GUI video converter
- you want a library to embed in another application rather than shell scripts
- you rely on the pre-2025 RubyGems API, which is incompatible
