I decided to try running Handbrake in Ubuntu (Linux) using Oracle’s Virtual Box on Windows 7. I had a few hours of play time the other day and I decided to attack DVD backups from a different direction. For starters I cannot get the 64-bit version to run and the 32-bit version renders at an abysmal 7 frames per second. Handbrake has been my go-to choice for backing up DRM-protected movies but I have had problems running it directly in Windows 7.
To correct this I have been backing up their DVD’s to. A DVD is a frisbee, coaster, and also just happens to play movies, too. They love their DVD’s but do not know how to take care of them. I have kids that are now of Disney-watching age.
