I have also been trying Handbrake and just discovered that if I encode
in MKV format it does a great job and only takes 20 to 35 mintes per movie.
So now life is all good again :) I thought about running a PLEX server
But don't want to tie up a computer full time.
My DLNA server is a 1 terabyte USB hard drive pluged into my router
and I can stream Movies from it to all 4 of my ROKU boxes.
