I've been working on a setup to rip all my church's old DVDs (I'm estimating 500-1000). I tried setting up ARM like some users here suggested, but it's been a pain. I got it all working except I can't get it to: #1 rename the DVDs to anything besides the auto-generated date and #2 to auto-eject DVDs.

It would be one thing if I was ripping them myself but I'm going to hand it off to some non-tech-savvy volunteers. They'll have a spreadsheet and ARM running. They'll record the DVD info (title, data, etc), plop it in a DVD drive, repeat. At least that was the plan. I know Python and little bits of several languages but I'm unfamiliar with Linux (Windows is better).

Any other suggestions for automating this project?
