Hi all. I'm pretty green when it comes to video encoding, so please be kind :?). I want to make backups of some of my prize dvd's (my son is almost 2 years old & I know it's a little early, but I don't want him playing frizbie with my LOTR collection ...). I can then store the originals in a safe place & while we can use the copies.
Under gentoo on my p4 I haven't been able to find any app that'll do what dvdshrink under 'doze can. While I know I can run dvdshrink under wine, I'd prefer a linux solutios. So I've hacked together a script (attached) gleaned from serveral sources, the main being the first post of this topic: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=244625 All (seems) to go well until mplex. I've tried several different titles, all contain one of two errors: **ERROR: [mplex] Can't find next AC3 frame: @ 437691392 we have 2cf9 - broken bit-stream? **ERROR: [mplex] MUX STATUS: Frame data under-runs detected! The script has the various mplex options I've tried (reproduced here): mplex -v 0 -f 9 -o $FINAL_VIDEO-%d.MPG $SHRUNK_VIDEO $AUDIO mplex -v 0 -f 8 -o $FINAL_VIDEO-%d.MPG $SHRUNK_VIDEO $AUDIO mplex -v 0 -f 8 -r 9400 -o $FINAL_VIDEO-%d.MPG $SHRUNK_VIDEO $AUDIO mplex -v 0 -f 8 -V -o $FINAL_VIDEO-%d.MPG $SHRUNK_VIDEO $AUDIO mplex -f 8 -o $FINAL_VIDEO-%d.MPG $SHRUNK_VIDEO $AUDIO Can someone please take a moment to give me some hints as to what I'm doing wrong? Is it mplex, or is something further up the pipe causing my headaches? Or is there an even better solution for dvd backups? Thanks in advance. -- GROG! www Machine-Independent, adj.: Does not run on any thks (O-O) existing machine. --oOO--(_)--OOo--
