Requires transcoding on the server (bad for scalability) + no option for 4k transcoding (1080p max only right now so bad for picture quality). More subjectively, the user experience with using a library server is poor (when there are errors, they are extremely obscure + prone to silent failure).

And what are cross platform paths? (just trying to learn and to figure out if choosing the linux platform for MC is a good idea or not for me)

Routing system audio (eg browser) via jriver DSP engine

MC does not translate paths from Windows format to Linux, it just tries to read the exact path hence a mixed OS network must allow the server to transcode rather than use local file playback option

Made a simpel script to convert my blu-ray movies to mkv, works fine for me. Deliberately do not remove the old blu-ray structure yet, will make another script to do so after I did a few random checks to see if they all converted fine.


--- Code: ---find . -name BDMV | sed s'/\/BDMV//g' | sed s'/.\///g' | while read dirname
do
  if [ ! -f "$dirname/$dirname.mkv" ]
    then
    echo Processing "$dirname"
    makemkvcon info file:"$dirname"
    makemkvcon mkv file:"$dirname" 0 "$dirname" --progress=-stdout
    echo "renaming mkv file"
    mv "$dirname/title_t00.mkv" "$dirname/$dirname.mkv"
  fi
done
