Engram is a modern disc ripping and media organization tool with a reactive web dashboard. Unlike headless automation tools, Engram provides full visibility into the ripping process with intelligent Human-in-the-Loop intervention for ambiguous content. SUPPORT: - Discord: https://discord.gg/G8fjjGswdc - GitHub Issues: https://github.com/jsakkos/engram/issues REQUIREMENTS: - A TMDB Read Access Token (set in the Engram web UI on first run) - Optical drive passthrough is REQUIRED. A native Linux host exposing /dev/sr* devices is needed. Use the Disc Drive (block) and Disc Drive (scsi) settings below; each variable's description shows the command to find the correct device paths. - A MakeMKV license key is OPTIONAL — the free monthly beta key from the MakeMKV forums is grabbed automatically if one is not provided. GPU ACCELERATION (OPTIONAL): - Enabled by default via --gpus=all in Extra

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.

Common questions

What must be set in the Engram web UI on first run?

A TMDB Read Access Token must be set in the Engram web UI on first run.

Is a MakeMKV license required to rip discs?

No; a MakeMKV license key is optional.

Does the acoustic fingerprint feature upload my media?

No audio or video leaves your machine; the shared catalog uses chromaprint audio fingerprints to identify episodes without needing subtitles.

What does Engram do when episode matching is ambiguous?

It puts the item in a human-in-the-loop review queue with a pre-filled correction modal. This covers low-confidence matches, unreadable disc labels, and ambiguous content.
