MakeMKV mount usb optical drive

[ncw1978]

Hi I am trying to use makemkv to rip my bluerays onto my server and I am having trouble getting it to recognise my usb optical drive. Is there a mount option I have to put in the container .

I am pretty new to this server stuff so my linux knowledge is a bit laking.

Thanks

I have solved adding one drive to it in the resource section but I am struggling to get another device usb blu ray drive to show up to rip 2 off at the same time. Does anyone have any info on this.

Thanks

How did you set them up? Is the other drive USB?

Both drives are usb and where working great but I have since made a mistake and deleted handbrake. Trying to get it working again

Another person is doing something similar in the below thread. He is using MakeMKV and had it working. Then a power cycle to move things around, and now it no longer works.

Optical USB drive was working, but not quit.

I'm fairly new to TrueNAS Scale and really to NAS in general. I want to apologize upfront that i'm not a HARDCORE linux guy so be gentle. The hardware is a dedicated machine only running truenas scale as the OS. I'm running the latest SCALE release and had a blueray drive attached via USB...

That's the issue I had. I eventually moved all those drives to my Windows PC instead. It was too hit-or-miss on TrueNAS.

I have it working for makemkv now added /dev/sr0 to usb config on the makemkv usb section on install and it works great

I just followed the above guide and It works! I'm Astounded, over the moon and truly grateful. I have been working with FreeNAs for years and now I'm getting used to scale and Truecharts. I'm loving it. I hope I'm not tempting fate!!!!!!!!!

Glad it helped

I can't for the life of me mount my SATA drive. Any pointers? Did you have to change any other setting?

Unfortunately no, I just added exactly what was in this guide

MakeMKV and usb blu ray drives

Hi I was wondering if anyone had any luck with MakeMKV for blu-ray ripping for plex and if a usb blu-ray drive was easy to set up. Many thanks NCW

I'm not new, but fairly dumb when it comes to Linux so I was groping in the dark too. There is a piece at the bottom of the page that has an additional entry if it wasn't already set this way. It works so far
