I am under the assumption that if I direct cinema experience to play a movie that is an ISO, it will (in essence) do an auto-play, thus triggering any of the FBI warnings, trailers on the disc, and anything else before getting to the root menu. Obviously, I am scraping trailers from the Apple repository, and I don't think I would want the DVD menu playing before the feature.
I am hesitant to rip down the DVD, for fear of losing some audio and video quality, and right now would have to perform this task on about 400 titles. Therefore, I would like to query people on the thread first before I start the conversion process on what works best without loss of quality.
Thanks to the group for a great board, and support!
If you mux the DVD to an MKV you will not lose any quality at all. Plus it doesn't take very long as there is no conversion going on.
