After 2 hard drives failed, I no longer have my media library :-(

I now have a tape (LTO4) drive to backup my library before the next time a disk fails, but would welcome suggestions on automating re-creating my library.

I'd like a system that detects a disk has been inserted, looks up what the disk is, creates a folder with the name (in a format that the XBMC scraper will parse correctly), creates an iso (or /video_ts folders etc and files within) and then ejects the disk. I'm not interested in compression in the library.

If it can cope with multiple DVD drives, then that would be even better :-)

I'm mostly Windows, but would be happy building a Linux box if that was needed.

Thanks

I've had a look at vortexbox, which looks like a great idea, but it could do with a bit more "polish"

I've ended up with Windows Home server, combined with MyMovies and AnyDVD HD. I think I'm going to get a Nimbie NB11 to cut down on the manual labour...
