Sorry bout that, I actually added that in right before I sent it,
because I figured it was something people would need if they wanted to
use it. 

For anyone else, this is the correction to the script previously sent:


26,27c26,27

<   l) FORCE_LANG="-alang=$OPTARG";

Looks like exactly what I needed - I had to fix it up a bit - there were 
missing ;'s in the argument parsing case (no biggie, just wouldn't let 
me force a language)


I spent a lot of time staring blankly at the mencoder man page before I 
broke down and asked for help ;)


Thanks!

tools) but now it's just a bunch of IFO and VOB files.
There are better ways to do this, just remember, if mplayer can play it, mplayer can dumpstream it.
Anyone know how I can get MythDVD to transcode this for me?  All the toolsI've tried have been difficult to figure out, and the closest I've come
was to have the audio badly out of sync.  I was hoping there might be away to connect to mtd and tell it what I want.

Don't know if this is possible, it certainly isn't necessary.
 
Or am I just not seeing the forest for the trees?  Is there a better toolout there to transcode ripped VOBs to avi/ogg/mpg/whatever?  I'd rather
not use Windows, since my Wintel machine is badly underpowered.

I wrote a simple script (attached) to do a few basic tasks based on the information from here:  http://f0rked.com/core/simplerip

It's nothing particularly brilliant, and doesn't give much feed back, but here's basically how it works:


sh trans.sh -i INFILE -o OUTFILE

Options:
  -i  :  In file
  -o : Outfile, default is temp.avi
  -C : Tries to auto crop with mplayer's cropdetect filter
  -c :  Lets you set a crop value ie "720:352:0:66"
  -s :  Lets you set a scale value ie "704:304"
  -b : Set the variable bitrate, default is 700
  -a : Keep audio instead of transcoding (useful for AC3 audio)
  -v : Volume gain adjustment, default is 3
  -l  : Select audio track by language, only use with VOB files!
  -t : Select audio track by track ID, only use with VOB files!

If the program you used makes a clean dvd copy, you'll need to cat the
vob files together before you can use my script.  Let me know if
it's helpful.


trans.sh
Description: Bourne shell script

i know it's a windows tool, but Gordian Knot is the best set of tools 
there is for ripping dvd .. it can do anything you need and is easy to 
use ... sorry i can't help with a linux-only solution
