But once you find a stanza that works, you can put it in a script or an alias. But it taks experimenting, and many hours (unless you just encode a small number of frames). It's tough to sit for 5 or more hours to find that you ended up forgetting to encode the audio :( twice :( :( and you've been successful doing it with other DVDs. Of course, you can use a graphical wrapper (gtranscode / gmencoder). Sometimes I use DVD:Rip, but I think that's doing more work than needed to get acceptable quality. It's also slower. If you look, you discover that there are usually >10 instances of transcode and helper things (tccat) running during a DVD:rip. That seems too complicated IMHO. I found mencvcd, just trying it now with a DVD. A couple fits & starts, but we'll see what the results give. > There are also Mandrake rpm available (are they on the cd's?).
