- command line options for automatic scanning and title selection
Requirements:
· perl
· gtk-perl
· mencoder compiled with lame and DVD support.
Optionally, you can use transcode for the scanning of the DVD.
Tip & Trics and Need-To-Knows:
- I could not help but notice that mplayer doesn't report the right DVD title lengths, so you could see a "neg. time" in your timer sometimes while encoding. That's not all, your videobitrate is completely wrong !
You can solve this by looking up the length of the movie (e.g. on the DVD cover or a search on google) and using that time in the "A/V Settings"-tab.
I strongly suggest you install tcprobe from the package transcode, so you will not have to fuss about with that.
- Subtitles can bz ripped in a separate file (vobsub format only)
- For surround sound use Encode Audio "copy" in the "A/V Settings"-tab
- Do you have a DVD (vob)copied to hard disk? Use it's full path instead of the DVD device
- Your settings are located in $HOME/.dvd2divx3pass, and are loaded at startup
