- Remove films without notice (licensing churn).

- MakeMKV – Rip Blu-ray to lossless MKV (≈25GB).
- HandBrake – Encode to 480p presets:
Resolution: 854x480, RF: 20, x264 veryfast.
- Audacity – Record Hindi audio from official source (check local laws).
- MKVToolNix – Mux both audio tracks, mark English as default and Hindi as secondary.
