I have the dvds, I just need to learn how to make my own lol

And also put the series on hard drive so I'm not relying on optical discs...

Well if you take requests: S10E14, "The Shroud", around 12 minutes in Jack and Daniel/Merlin have a conversation, and around 14m into the episode there are SO many potential gifs.

"Y'know.... That old chestnut is getting a little.... Old."

"you know how much I hate being told what to do."

"You of all people should know, I don't believe anything anyone says even if I know what they're talking about!"

Honestly I love when Daniel and Jack go back and forth like that, it's always great.

    1. For ripping Blu-ray discs, I remember finding that taking the time and effort to set up Automated Ripping Machine (ARM) was definitely the best software. But for ripping DVDs, there may be something even simpler. ARM handles the Blu-ray decryption and whatnot that other software does not handle well. But DVDs do not use encryption, so you may find it simpler to install some other quick DVD ripping software. With that said, ARM has features that make it great for ripping disc after disc after disc, so check out the README and determine if it might be worth the effort to get that set up. Good luck ripping!
    2. When you do have the files ready, here is my tutorial for how I make these GIFs with Kdenlive: https://feddit.org/post/11802992
    3. I do encourage requests! And even if those lines were on my list already, having a user like you request them would just be the encouragement that I need to actually make them. You can expect me to post them here soon. I will be sure to tag you.
    4. I do have one GIF made from that episode. But not that from scene at all:

    Sweet! I meant to get the dvd collection for all 3 series when I had the chance, but ah well. I've got dvds dating back to 2007, and I think all of them still work.

    I wonder if I could win a legal battle if I got caught torrenting the show since I already have the dvds...

    I'll have to check out the tutorial in the morning, I've got some Firefly gifs I wanna make!

    This is not legal advice, but there seems to be little to no chance of a legal battle from torrenting. Maybe depending on your jurisdiction and how new the media is. It's up to you. It's almost always going to be less effort than ripping the discs yourself, that's for sure. That is about as much as I am allowed to say on the instance this community is in.
