Movie ingest pipeline

Status

This page is a placeholder for a system I use to process movies for streaming.

Problem

Movie files arrive with inconsistent names, codecs, metadata, and subtitle tracks. The pipeline should make them predictable without turning each new file into a manual cleanup task.

Planned notes

  • ingest and file naming

  • subtitle selection and translation

  • metadata and library updates

  • transcoding decisions

  • validation before publishing to the media server
