Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I think you're probably better off using something that's build for media servers. One really nice feature is adding more processing nodes to make things go faster, like a gaming PC while not playing anything. I don't think Handbrake can do that by itself.
I just finished setting up transcoding for my media library, and the options I found were Tdarr, FileFlows and Unmanic. They all use ffmpeg and/or Handbrake under the hood, so it kinda comes down to preference. I went with FileFlows because it seemed the most intuitive to me, and it can also process other media like photos, music, audiobooks and ebooks.
