Just wanted to share a short simple PS script to accomplish something I was looking around and not finding examples for. Was going to add to this thread in particular but there wasn't an option for me to reply so here's a new post on it.
My Situation -
I have around 300 Blu-ray discs that I have backed up on a NAS via makemkv in a full backup folder structure, i wanted to turn these all into ISOs but didn't want to sit and baby sit to do each individually.
There's a great batch file example here , but that didn't work for my situation. This simple PS script pulls only directory names from a folder and writes ISOs based on those. You can specify input and outputs anyway you'd like. You can make this into a one liner if you like but for clarity's sake here's a structured form.
Notes:
Change the source to where your backup folders are
Change the destination to where you want to put the ISOs
Uncomment the Remove-Item Line if you want to remove the backup after the ISO conversion is complete.
$source = "Z:\"
$destination = "Z:\"
$directories = Get-ChildItem $source -directory
$imgburn = "C:\Program Files (x86)\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe"
Foreach ($directory in $directories)
{
$arglist = "/MODE BUILD /BUILDINPUTMODE STANDARD /BUILDOUTPUTMODE IMAGEFILE /SRC `"$source$directory`" /DEST `"$destination$directory.iso`" /FILESYSTEM 'UDF' /UDFREVISION '2.50' /VOLUMELABEL $directory /NOIMAGEDETAILS /START /CLOSESUCCESS"
Start-Process $imgburn -ArgumentList $arglist -Wait
#uncomment the following if you are feeling brave...Removes the backup after creating the ISO
#Remove-Item $source$directory -Recurse
}
