HandBrake

This is a container for the dvd ripping/movie encoding application.

It needs access to /dev/sr0 device and run as privileged container at the moment.

It's based on DesktopContainers/base-mate

⁠Usage: Run the Client

⁠Simple SSH X11 Forwarding

Since it is an X11 GUI software, usage is in two steps:

1. Run a background container as server or start existing one.

docker start handbrake || docker run -d --name handbrake --privileged --device /dev/sr0 -p 8887:80 -v /tmp/:/rips desktopcontainers/handbrake

1. Connect to the server using ssh -X. Logging in with ssh automatically opens handbrake

ssh -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no \
