I'm trying to use dvd::rip on Fedora Core 5, with transcode and
dependencies installed from Freshrpms. I originally posted on the
dvd::rip list, where other users reported success with the same
components installed. We couldn't find any difference with our
installations, except mine doesn't work.
Here's the top of that thread:

The problems do seem to be with transcode, so I was sent over here ;-)
I am nearly clueless when it comes to video: much of the transcode man
page I haven't read; more of it I have read but don't understand.
Anything can happen.
I can use transcode directly to rip a chapter successfully, like so:
$ transcode -i /dev/dvd -x dvd -J extsub2 -U my_movie \
-y xvid -w 1618 -T 1,5-5
So the basics seem to be ok.
The main problem at this point is when dvd::rip tries to grab a preview
image: transcode never exits and I have to cancel it in dvd::rip.
From the dvd::rip log, I pulled out the essential command that dvd::rip
is running and narrowed it down to this:
$ transcode -o snapshot -y ppm,null -x vob,null -i \
/mnt/dvdrip/swi/vob/001-C005/ -c 2-3
This should extract frame 2 as "snapshot__.ppm" from a previously ripped
vob file, and it does, except transcode never exits after the ppm file
is created.
Here's the output:
---------------------
$ transcode -o snapshot -y ppm,null -x vob,null -i

At this point, the output file is complete, but transcode never exits. I
type C-c a couple of times and then C-\:

---------------------
This is exactly what happens from dvd::rip, so I think it really is a
problem in transcode.
I'd sure appreciate some suggestions as what to try next.
