Dvd::rip and AL

I just have a preliminary question before I embark upon trying to get dvd::rip to work. Has anyone successfully used it with AL? My question stems from the fact that it's reeeealy finnicky about everything and I've had problems installing it on every distro I've ever used.
Thanks,
matt

unless you are prepared to make packages for quite a few gnome 1.4 packages (i think this would ivolved practically making the whole of 1.4).
transcode can be found in the unofficial trees if you are comfortable using cli for ripping dvds. (recent versions of libdvdcss and libdvdread are there too.

  • Just a few questions about DVD Ripping and Final Cut 6

    Ok,
    Here is my first major concern. I have a wedding that I cut on the Final Cut Studio. After I burnt it to a DVD, I erased the main footage. However, the groom wanted to add something so I went into my backup files to get the information but just so happens that my backup hard drive crashed and it will not recognize on any Mac. (Tried 3 different Macs including 2 PowerMac G5’S and a Power Mac G4) Anyway all I have no is the DVD. I was wondering if anyone knew any good ripping software that I can rip this DVD back to a QuickTime. I have tried a few programs but the quality is just horrible.
    My next question is does anyone know when Final Cut Pro 6 is shipping?

    Did you lose your autosave vault with the crash? You could open your autosave and grab the last cut and do a media manager capture so you wouldn't have to re-edit or capture all of the media again.
    Also, there are people who can get the info off the drive for a modest fee. If this was a paying gig, consider it part of the cost of having done the project. If the groom was satisfied and the project was complete, I guess you could argue that an extra fee is in order if he wants a different version after the final version was already delivered and agreed upon. Otherwise you kind of owe it to him to do whatever it takes to give him a final output.
    Make a backup tape as well next time. That way you can recapture and add, then re-backup and re-compress. Lots of re-ings.

  • DVD Ripping and Encoding

    To rip your home made videos from DVD to MPEG 4 and other formats:
    Use these free applications:
    1. Mac The Ripper
    2. Hand Brake
    It is illegal to rip commercial DVDs.

    Hmmm, that's curious. On the MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR product page Kingston memory is recommended  
    Ok, did a Memtest86 v1.11 pass at cpu/dimm 166/166 - no problems whatsoever. I think using Prime95 would have revealed memory problems...but will do another pass with cpu/dimm at 190/190.
    Can overclocking affect the Promise Raid Controller?? It should be locked like the PCI/AGP but who knows...
    Well, I still have to replace my PSU but I'm not 100% sure that this is the problem. What PSU would you recommend? ...and I'm also thinking about replacing the standard CPU cooler, any advice is welcome

  • DVD Rip and then burn - video stuttering

    I'm trying to rip from a dvd (legal) - so I can put it in Final Cut, add subtitles, and burn back to dvd? But so far, I'm getting video that stutters on my final dvd.
    I tried to rip the video from dvd using MPEG Streamclip, then edited it in Final Cut before burning a dvd in DVD Studio. But in the ripped video the picture fades in and out.
    Then, when I burn to dvd, the video stutters incredibly on a regular dvd player (but not on the computer's dvd player). Anyone know what's going on here?
    Suggestions?

    I just encoded it using compressor. A little bit of stuttering on the dvd (should I apply a de-interlace filter?)
    But still have the problem with a constant color change on the video - is there a different program that I should try to rip with rather than MPEG Streamclip?
    Thanks.

  • Glitch nightmare! DVD ripped to MPEG STREAMCLIP to FCP HD to DVD Studio Pro

    Hi. Dealing with a very frustrating DVD-to-FCP-to-DVD glitch for months now, finally thought I should tap the knowledge base for help. I'm pretty uneducated about this stuff!
    We're doing a favor for an area actor. She wants a DVD reel of her performances.
    She gave us selection of some movies she's been in. They are all on DVD; this was the only format she could get the films in.
    I figured, we'll rip the DVDs with Mac the Ripper, put the resultant TS files through MPEG streamclip, edit them in FCP and then whip up a DVD.
    But on the resultant DVD, the picture is, intermittently, REALLY jumpy when the DVD is viewed on the TV set. It's fine when viewed on the G5's DVD player, but once you put it into the commercial DVD player and watch it on the television set, it's really glitch-heavy, which presumably won't impress anyone she's sending her reel to.
    What might we be doing wrong?
    MPEGStreamclip has a ton of output options. It's mind-boggling. But I presume there's a disagreement happening there between the MPEGStreamclip export options, the FCP sequence A/V settings, and/or the preferences in DVD Studio Pro.
    I've tried different Streamclip options, tried to synchronize the field dominance on all 3 applications, tried a ton of things and still have not hit on the magical pre-set combination that will make this work.
    Any ideas or knowledge about this would be hugely appreciated.
    Thanks!!!

    This could be a pulldown removal problem. What were your sequence settings? Is this 60i or 24p. DVD's are usually 60i. If the material originated in 24p then burned to a 60i dvd ripped, and then edited in 24p and then burned to 60i again you can see how this could cause problems. Do you have to render when you drop in the timeline? There are so many questions.

  • DVD::RIP Stops Responding [SOLVED]

    Howdy,
    I have just started to use DVD::RIP to try and backup some of my DVDs to XViD/DiVX.  However, everytime I try to rip one, DVD::RIP it seems to stop responding while it is trying to generate a preview image of the ripped movie.   The application can still be moved around within, tabs changed, but the ripping area items remain greyed out.  The status bar at the bottom stops updating, however the log files continue to update with the amount of time the process has been running.  According to the website, "This usually takes a few seconds, unless you're in the on-the-fly or DVD image mode, where this may need a minute."  I am not in either of the above modes, I am using the application suggested RIP to Hard Drive mode.  I have waited several times up to 15 minutes for this process to complete without any change.  I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out?  Or point me to a better solution for DVD ripping and transcoding.  Thanks.

    I can't help you solve your problem with DVD::Rip, but I'd suggest you give HandBrake a try. It is a really easy to use command line tool for ripping and encoding DVDs and is by far the fastest DVD-ripper I've found. Quality is very good as well and it does stuff like detect cropping values automatically and very reliable. There's a precompiled binary for Linux on their forums if you fear to compile it on your own. You could also try Avidemux which a friend of mine suggested. He says it's the best tool for ripping DVDs, but I haven't tried it myself since I'm really satisfied with handbrake.
    There's also Thoggen, Winki The Ripper, OGMRip and probably many more others. But they can't compare to Handbrake IMHO.

  • Dvd::rip transcode/libdvdread error [SOLVED]

    Job 'Process title #15' failed with error message:
    Job 'Rip - title #15' failed with error message:
    It seems that transcode ripping stopped short.
    The movie has 182817 frames, but only 22300
    were ripped. This is most likely a problem with your
    transcode/libdvdread installation, resp. a problem with
    this specific DVD.
    The wiki makes it seem so easy to use dvd::rip! I put my disc in, started a new project, began the rip and got this. As far as I can tell, my system is up to date and has all the deps for dvd::rip in good order. I've never changed a thing with transcode (I didn't even know I had it installed before I got this error). What is wrong?
    P.s. Is there a way to tell if a DVD is encrypted? This would be helpful to me since dvd::rip and its kin don't work with encrypted movies.

  • Guide: How to rip and convert DVDs or other videos to iPod

    Hi guys, we ofter met problems in using iPod, such as when we meet with a beloved movies we are in trouble to enjoy it on our iPod. Thus I write this document that shows how to rip and convert DVDs or other videos to your iPod MP4.
    1. First of all, please download ImTOO DVD to iPod Converter at http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-to-ipod-converter.exe
    2. Install it and open your local DVD by clicking "Add DVD Folder" button under "File" menu.

    5. Set conversion mode (Optional)
    After selecting certain output format, the right column will show its general standard. By clicking certain settings such as 'Zoom', 'Split', 'Destination' and ‘Title’ etc, you may set it.
    Please note: you can set "Bit Rate" by choosing the rate given, such as "512". Certainly, you can keep all the above options default without any change.

    Thanks! But when I visit the site recently, I found the program was upgraded. Now it has 2 optimized output formats specially made for iPod 30G and 60G players! Thus it is easier and more convenient to use without complex settings as other software. Try it at http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-to-ipod.converter.exe
    Another good news: there was a new discount suite ImTOO DVD to iPod Suitethat contains both the DVD to iPod Converter and iPod Movie Converter. It saves newly $20! Hope this can do some help

  • Getting Ripped DVD Video and Audio Into Encore

    Do you have previously authored DVDs that need rework?  Do you want to add menus with greater impact and functionality?  Do you want to add some additional program or supplemental material?  Does a client want their product demo DVD to be updated to reflect the capabilities of the new and improved version, but the source files no longer exist?  Using Adobe Encore DVD and a freeware utility called DVD Decrypter (DVDD), you can accomplish this quickly and easily.
    Disclaimer: I do not support the illegal copying and/or distribution of copyrighted works.  The authors and distributors of the software I use have made it clear that they do not support illegal copying.  This guide is intended solely to assist you in ripping and copying DVD video to which you have the legal rights.  Any use of this guide to infringe the copyright of someone else’s intellectual property is prohibited.
    This guide is based on Adobe Encore DVD 1.5.1 and DVD Decrypter version 3.5.4.0.  Let’s Begin!
    Place the DVD to be ripped in your DVD drive and launch DVDD.  If you have more than one drive (e.g., a DVD-ROM and a DVD burner) make sure the one with the disc is selected in the Source dropdown list in the main program window.  Now we need to set up DVDD to extract video in a way that is “Encore friendly”.  This is the toughest part of the whole exercise.  Click on the Tools menu item and choose “Settings…”. 
    Settings
    General Tab: You can leave these set at their defaults if you like.  Personally, I specify a custom Default Destination.  I put my ripped video assets all in one place anyway, and having a default destination means I have one less thing to do when I rip a DVD.
    IFO Mode Tab: Make sure that “Select Main Movie PGC” and “Enable Stream Processing” are checked.  “Uncheck Suspect Cells” is probably a good default safety check.  If your hard disks are formatted as NTFS, set File Splitting to “None”.  I leave “Copy IFO File” checked with the default sub-items checked.  Make sure that “Patch M2V Timecode” is unchecked.  The items in the Create Additional Files section are purely optional.  The author of DVDD has been kind enough to list which programs need which files; notice that Encore DVD isn’t listed as needing any of these extra files.  I do keep the “Stream Information” box checked.  DVDD generates very informative file names, but I like to keep “Include PGC Number” under File Names checked.  Be advised you will get some lengthy file names after DVDD is finished ripping.
    Stream Processing Tab: Since we enabled stream processing in the IFO Mode tab, we need to tell DVDD how to process those streams.  To save yourself time and confusion later, check the “Convert PCM to WAV” box.  Earlier versions of Encore required a Demuxed audio stream and a Raw video stream.  Encore 1.5.1 can accept either type of video stream (Raw or Demuxed) but it does still require a Demuxed audio stream.  However, I still recommend using Raw video and Demuxed audio, if only because it seems to be somewhat faster to process in DVDD.  This workflow is also backward-compatible with earlier versions of Encore.
    So let’s set up the Stream Processing tab now.  In the Demux box, enter “0x8? 0xA? 0xC?”.  This ensures that all audio streams in the selected PGC, whether AC3, PCM or MPEG will be set to Demux.  In the Raw box, enter “0xE0”.  This ensures that the video from the selected PGC will be set to Raw.  
    Additional Notes about the Stream Processing Tab:
    1. For those of you asking the question, “What the heck is a PGC?” it’s just DVD-speak for the titles in a DVD project.  And I’m not talking about the opening or end credits, either; I’m talking about the titles that result, for example, from the timelines you create in an Encore DVD project.  There is a subtle difference between a PGC and a VTS (title set), but that's not important right now.
    2. Happily, recent versions of DVDD create a WAV file after ripping that will import directly into Encore.  Versions prior to 3.2.0.0 would create a WAV file that had to be imported to, and exported from, a sound editing program like Adobe Audition, Goldwave or SoundForge before Encore would recognize it.
    Events Tab: For convenience sake, I recommend setting “Set Program Mode” in the Startup section to “IFO”.  That way, whenever you launch DVDD, it will look familiar to you.  You may safely ignore all of the other tabs in the Settings dialog. 
    Ripping
    1.Under the Input Tab of the main program window, select the PGC you want to rip.  You can only do one at a time.
    2.Switch to the Stream Processing Tab.  Verify that Enable Stream Processing is checked.
    3.Check or uncheck any or all of the video and audio streams that are listed.  Highlight each one to verify that all audio streams are set to Demux and the video stream is set to Raw.
    4.If you didn’t select Default Destination in the General Settings Tab, then you need to tell DVDD where to put the ripped files now.
    5.Click on the big DVD-to-Disk icon.
    6.DVDD will announce, quite loudly, when it has finished.  At that point you can rename the files or import them as is into Encore.
    I hope you find this guide useful and that it helps you get the most out of your investment in Adobe Encore DVD.

    OK, I can't tell you what we are doing, you'll have to trust me that it's for a very good cause. I'll simplify the use case as an example. If I can do the following we'll be OK:
    1) Read video/audo files from a DVD that we created
    2) Open these files with the QuickTime Player, click on Export to Apple TV to create an output file.
    I'd rather not do an interim conversion of the video data (like use a 3rd party app to convert to mp4 first and then read into QT, but I'm considering a conversion to DV) because that could seriously hurt the apps effectiveness. I also can't use another app (MPEG Streamclip, HandBrake, VisualHub, etc.) to do the conversion.

  • Ripping and Copying DvDs

    what is best software (free if possible) to use to rip and copy DvDs?

    hi,
    burning DVD can be done directly from the finder without any additional software; see the following article;
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh854.html
    then, you may need more functionality but then, you need to clarify what's are your needs. if this is for video purpose, I personally like using Roxio Popcorn; http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/popcorn/standard/overview.html
    if this doesn't answer your question, try to be more specific on what you need to do.
    regards,

  • Dvd burning and ripping

    Dose anyone know where one could find a dvd copying program like the windows based dvd decripter, and dvd shrink. it would be great if anyone knows of any.

    Yes, there is one program in particular that will decrypt and encode any DVD called HandBrake. Here is the link: http://handbrake.m0k.org/?page_id=24. There is also an Instant HandBrake that will encode DVDs specifically for the iPod 5th gen. and the PSP. You can find that on the Beta page. Hope this helps.

  • I own 200 DVD,s and want to store them on my IMac to watch on my Apple TV help

    I have the latest software on my iMac latest os software on my Apple TV all the latest software on my I Pad and I phone 4 s yet I am unable to put one of my DVDs into the iMac cd tray and store to the hard drive to play back on any of my apple devices
    Please advice i am using the latest version of I Tunes the IMac reads the DVD when I put it into the mac cd DVD drive yet I have no option to choose to store it it just offers play back
    Please can somebody help I've spent a lot of money on apple products in my home to be able to use my I pad I phone  and I mac around my home but I am struggling to make it work

    You have to rip them, in order to save them to your hard drive. Then transfer them over to your iTunes. From there you will be able to sync and watch them on your apple T.V. Now heres the messy part.....if the dvd is copy righted..I think its illegal to rip.....so no one including myself would ever advise you to do that! But if you look in the app store you'll probably find applications for both ripping, and transfering video apps, so you can copy, your personal home movies(not copy righted movies ofcourse), and then transfer them into your iTunes libary. One app might do both...or you may need different apps. If the app store doesnt have anything you think would work....google some third party apps....

  • DVD rip to iPod on Windows

    Im sorry, i have seen this asked before, but the only ones i saw were ways with mac programs. Can somebody give me a link or tell me a step by step way to rip my DVDs and then convert them to a iPod format that is completely free, and i can convert a whole movie without paying for a converter. Thanks.

    well thank you for reading adn doing some searching.Luckily for mac users the process isnt as cumbersome adn troublesome for windows users. I have always used this software to convert my dvds to be played on the ipod and have had no troubles and no errors. here is the website for the software adn related info about it and a website on how to convert a DVD using this software.

  • IMac - external DVD drive crashes Aimersoft DVD Ripping program

    I am using Aimersoft DVD ripping software (legal version) to make mp4 files out of DVDs. It works fine on the IMac internal DVD drive. But when I try and use an external DVD drive using FW800/400 conversion cable, Aimersoft program keeps crashing.
    Any thoughts?

    Peter,Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Here are some alternative choices for playing DVDs.
    If the LaCie drive USB or FW?
    Tiger is serious improvement over 10.1 (although you may need some more RAM) I'm not sure whether it will cure the DVD player issue? If you still have space (9Gb) on your 40Gb drive you could use Mac the Ripper, and then open the VIDEO_TS file in DVD Player.
