Now the ARM has been rewritten in Python and has a number of options to customize the way different people handle media. Since then quite a few contributors have made many improvements. I uploaded the scripts to GitHub under the MIT license.

Can send push notifications to your phone using Pushbullet or IFTT.The only interaction is inserting the disc and it takes it from there, ejecting it when done. Completely headless design–no graphical interface.Can rip from multiple optical drives simultaneously.If audio CD – rip to mp3 or flac using abcde and eject.When done transcoding tell Emby to rescan library, or send notifications using PushBullet or IFTT.Send rip to Handbrake and eject disc asynchronously.Determines if disc is Video, Data, or Audio.Once it completes a rip it ejects the disc for you and you can pop in another one.

It runs on Linux, it’s completely headless and fully automatic requiring no interaction or manual input to complete its tasks (other than inserting the disk).

Audio CD -> Rip and Encode to FLAC and Tag the files if possible.

DVD / Blu-ray -> Rip with MakeMKV and Transcode with Handbrake.

(Automatic Ripping Machine) detects the insertion of an optical disc, identifies the type of media, and autonomously performs the appropriate action:
