As more movies vanish from streaming services, cinephiles are rallying to physical media. Can they save a seemingly dying format?

        I use a MakeMKV docker container myself

          Looks good, but I can’t run it on Mac, sadly

            I daily drive a Mac but I keep all of my video stuff on a separate server running Linux. And I might be wrong and I’m not in a position to look it up right now, but I’d be surprised if you couldn’t run a docker container of it on a Mac. Is that not one of the big advantages of containerization?

              I’ve honestly never attempted anything like it before

              There may be some exceptions but I thought that the container at least had to have a similar if not the same OS as the base OS.

              That is why containers are so efficient, because they utilize all the like files of the base OS but act like their own machine, thus saving a lot of space.

                macOS is literally certified UNIX, afaik. I’d be surprised if you couldn’t.
