Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes

  • Before running against your full library The container performs its conversion and language-removal work as soon as it starts, and it has no web UI; check container logs for results. Before using it on a full movie share, create a test share such as MovieTest, move a small number of MP4 or M2TS files into it, and point the container at that test path. Use ISO 639-3 language codes when selecting languages to remove. source
  • First run Configure the language to remove and whether commentary tracks are removed, then point the container at the movie directory to process. source

How should I test it before running it against my full library?

Create a test folder, move a few movies into it, and set that folder as the container's movies path.

Is there a web UI for configuring it?

No, there is no web UI; you should check the container logs for output.

How do I specify the language to remove?

Use the language code from the ISO 639-3 table for the language you want removed.

Which movie files does it process?
