File The Eichmann Trial (2024).torrent

I've ripped the VOB to MKV for easier encoding.
Note that the subtitles are DVD image subs, they need OCR and proofreading to do a good job.

In 1961, history was on trial... in a trial that made history. Just 15 years after the end of WWII, the Holocaust had been largely forgotten. That changed with the capture of Adolf Eichmann, a former Nazi officer hiding in Argentina. Through rarely-seen archival footage, The Eichmann Trial documents one of the most shocking trials ever recorded, and the birth of Holocaust awareness and education.

Thanks! I am surprised a new release was for DVD. That doesn't happen that often anymore!

I remember fooling around a few years ago with different DVD ripping techniques. I swear there was a really good subtitle-ripping program, that more or less got the original subs, without OCR and all of the other stuff, which many of the other programs had to do. I just can't remember what the program was called...

MakeMKV is a wonderful piece of software. There is a windows version, I use it on the Mac via homebrew it's called makemkvcon and works on the command line.

It takes the VIDEO_TS folder and produces the MKV files you see - these are just the streams from the DVD wrapped up in MKV instead of VOB.

I then check the menu to name each file.

This is my preferred archive format since it loses nothing that wasn't in the DVD (apart from menus) and the files can be easily encoded later.

Nice, yes I think I remember using that one too. There was a way to pluck the mkv/vob off the DVD and mix it together with the subtitles and other files and convert them that way. There's an easy to use subtitle ripper to use with that program, from what I remember.

Nowadays, I can't even make use of any of my CD/DVDs. I'd have to get one of those standalone USB/DVD players that are available.

This appears to be stuck at 82% currently.

ETA: It is slowly moving now.

is clearly dumb.

It had apparently uploaded 13GB - above the 3x ratio I set before it throttles upload.

Why on earth would it upload any chunks twice before they'd all been sent out at least once. Crazy.

My old seedbox guys, Xirvik, used to throttle all of my public tracker torrents. They all maxed out at 50gb. I had to manually re-enter them to start off another 50gb at a time, until I eventually just went to a different seedbox. I just leave all torrents uploading 100% - that's how I like to do it!
