Can anyone recommend something akin to the windows program DVDShrink in debian? For backing up DVDs I tend to use dvdbackup (which sometimes fails to get all of some DVDs), then shrink (dual-layer ones -> single-layer DVD-R) using DVDShrink under vmware. I tried using it under wine but couldn't get it to recognise my DVD-R or DVD-RW drive actually existed. Then I use K3B (which is otherwise excellent) to burn. This is a bit of a circuitous route. I don't want to remove just one track or such. Is there an easier way? -James -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
