Now just comes in the issue of ripping them. Like I said I would like to do both of what VOD said.

.

If you want to go through the time and effort...

DVD: DVD decrypter (to crack the encryption) and Handbrake (to Encode) No need to encode with handbrake if you just want the entire DVD menu structure left as it is.

BluRay: http://lifehacker.com/5559007/the-hassle-free-guide-to-ripping-your-blu-ray-collection

Handbrake allows you to encode the ripped video with whatever settings/resolution you want.

Would a "smart TV" not work with plex?

It is a LG smart tv

It would depend on the make/model. Looks like it can however.

Well if I could do both that would be cool as well.. But ultimately the movie.
I can't say much about format because I have VideoLan as my main media player but it wont work on my smart TV. So i guess i need a way to make it where was can be watched on there as well....

PLEX and a $50 roku box works perfect.

Okay So I have quite a few blue-ray and DVDs i want to put on my hefty 48TB NAS i just built and I am trying to figure out what would be the best software for converting my movies to put them onto my computer.
So I can watch them over my network.

Note. I do know that the blue-ray movies are quite large in size but my network will handle the data no problem. Yea for fiber/gigabit ethernet.

First thing you need to do is figure out what format you want to store them in. Do you want a DVD type menu or do you just want a video file?

I use to use all the normal rippers/encoders (dvdclone,dvddecryter, DVD shrink, handbrake, Ect) but found it was easier just to download the torrent files. (Especially for blueray DVDs.)

I then have plex server setup on my PC. I can stream any movie to my Ipad, Roku/tv, or android phone.

This setup above works great unless you are trying to preserve the menu structure of the DVD. Then I use western digital live box and copy the ripped DVD in its entirety.

Btw, I have about a 1000 movies (quite a few "movie only" blueray rips) and I am only using up about 1.5 TB. 48TB is a lot of space!
