I know the majority opinion is not to do it for various reasons, but basically I started to backup the majority of my dvd collection that I created over the years since I have the time and they were just collecting dust. Turns out though I guess I’m doing it “wrong” or at least not in the original quality since I used handbrake instead of makemkv. I’m already 160 dvds in and about 40 more to go, is it worth, quality wise, going back and actually ripping? Is there a way to compare them? To clairify, I’ll be using makemkv from now on for the rest.

Good deal. Yeah I have few old movies or of circulation I downloaded in the 00’s in 240p that seemed fine back then but on my monitor or TV now make it look like I’m watching it on a Lite Brite.
