I. ABOUT dvd::rip is a full featured DVD copy program written in Perl. It provides an easy to use but feature-rich Gtk+ GUI to control almost all aspects of the ripping and transcoding process. It uses the widely known video processing swissknife transcode and many other Open Source tools. dvd::rip itself is licensed under GPL / Perl Artistic License. "And note: it's spelt dvd::rip, and nothing else." II. NOTE This README is automatically generated from the same sources which are used for the dvd::rip homepage. You'll allways get the latest news and information from the homepage. http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/ Also the homepage contains an extensive user documentation for standard and cluster mode, with screenshots, diagrams and more. This README covers only the installation not the usage of dvd::rip. III. DOCUMENTATION 1.

You can try one of the several binary distributions or install it from the source. 1.1 Binary distributions Installation of dvd::rip isn't that hard, but fulfilling the requirements actually is (simply because they are a lot ;). So you should first try a binary installation using the package manager of your Linux distribution. This should track all dependencies automatically and speed up things significantly. 1.1.1 Debian packages Christian Marillat builds video related Debian packages and publishes them on his website http://hpisi.nerim.net/. You can use apt-get to install the packages if you add one of the following entries (depending on your distribution) to your /etc/apt/sources.list file: deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat sarge main deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat etch main deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat sid main You will find all packages to compile transcode on your own (if you need always the very latest versions), or can get binaries of reasonably recent transcode versions directly. The same applies to dvd::rip. The dvd::rip package is called dvdrip. 1.1.2 SuSE packages On packman.links2linux.org you find several video related RPM's, including dvd::rip and transcode: dvd::rip at packman.links2linux.org http://packman.links2linux.org/ homepage 1.1.3 Mandrake packages Mandrake users can get actual dvd::rip and transcode RPM's from the Penguin Liberation Front lair. http://plf.zarb.org/ 1.1.4 RedHat packages Matthias Saou does a great job in building dvd::rip and other multimedia related packages. You can find them at freshrpms.net. This is a direct link the dvd::rip package: http://freshrpms.net/rpm/perl-Video-DVDRip 1.1.5 gentoo packages You can get dvd::rip and transcode from the official gentoo package repository: http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=dvdrip 1.1.6 FreeBSD port dvd::rip is available in the FreeBSD ports collection. To install from source, cd to ${PORTSDIR}/multimedia/dvdrip and type 'make install clean'. To install a binary package of the port, type 'pkg_add -r dvdrip'. Note however that the default installation of the transcode port which dvd::rip depends on is very minimalistic, it is recommended to look at the Makefile of the transcode port, enable all the options you need for dvd::rip and install the transcode port from source. Thanks to Michael Nottebrock, who maintains the FreeBSD port. 1.1.7 OpenBSD port Since June 2004 we have also an official OpenBSD port of dvd::rip. You find it under graphics/dvdrip. Thanks to the maintainer Waldemar Brodkorb. 1.2 Source download 1.2.1 dvd::rip tarball download You can download dvd::rip sources from this server or all stable releases from any CPAN mirror. Local download of the latest stable release: Video-DVDRip-0.97.12.tar.gz Video-DVDRip-0.97.12.tar.gz.asc (GnuPG signature, get key) Local download of the latest unstable release: Video-DVDRip-0.97.12.tar.gz Video-DVDRip-0.97.12.tar.gz.asc (GnuPG signature, get key) CPAN download directory: (list of mirrors) http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/J/JR/JRED/ You can download older versions from here: http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/dist/ http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/dist/pre/ This is a directory, which contains several user contributed files, you probably find useful: http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/contrib/ 1.2.2 CVS access This is mainly intended for developers and CVS experienced users. This CVS repository is only a read only mirror of my main repository. It's updated manually when I publish releases or pre-releases, so there is no advantage for normal users compared to downloading the tar balls (besides making it easier using "cvs update" ;) Since development of dvd::rip is divided into two branches, you get the current (unstable) version, if you don't specifiy a release tag. If you want to access a stable version, add -r rel-MAJOR-MINOR-PATCH to your cvs checkout command (example: for 0.48.5 this is -r rel-0-48-5). If you always want to have the latest stable patch release, use -r rel-MAJOR-MINOR-patches (e.g. -r rel-0-50-patches). All subsequent updates will stay on this branch (here: 0.50). The easiest way of switching to another branch is creating a new checkout using the corresponding release tag. Root Module Unstable tag Stable tag :pserver:cvs@cvs.exit1.org:/cvs dvdrip none rel-MAJOR-MINOR-PATCH 1.2.2.1 CVS examples Log into CVS server with: cvs -z3 -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.exit1.org:/cvs login (Press ENTER for password) Checkout latest version of the actual stable branch (here 0.50.x): cvs -z3 -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.exit1.org:/cvs checkout -r rel-0-50-patches dvdrip Checkout a specific stable/bugfix version (here 0.50.13) with: cvs -z3 -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.exit1.org:/cvs checkout -r rel-0-50-13 dvdrip Checkout the current development version with: cvs -z3 -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.exit1.org:/cvs checkout dvdrip Update a checkout - created using one of the commands above - with: cd dvdrip; cvs -z3 update 1.3 Requirements dvd::rip is a Gtk+ based program written in Perl, using the video processing tool transcode and many other tools for the internals. So you first have to get some prerequisites before installing dvd::rip. dvd::rip expects all command line tools mentioned here to be found in the standard search PATH. 1.3.1 Brief overview This table gives a brief overview of the tools used by dvd::rip (everything but the Perl modules - see the chapters below for more information about them). Most tools are optional - the corresponding dvd::rip modules are just switched off, if you don't have them. But you need at least the tools marked mandatory, otherwise dvd::rip will complain with an error message on startup. You can get also a dvd::rip window listing this information, refer to the corresponding chapter in the documentation for details. Tool Comment Mandatory Suggested Minimum Maximum dvd::rip All internal command files Yes - transcode dvd::rip is nothing without transcode Yes 0.6.14 0.6.14 - ImageMagick Needed for preview image processing Yes 6.2.3 4.0.0 - xvid4conf xvid4 configuration tool No 1.12 1.6 - subtitle2pgm Needed for subtitles No 0.3 0.3 - lsdvd Needed for faster DVD TOC reading No 0.15 0.15 - rar Needed for compressed vobsub subtitles No 2.71 2.71 2.99 mplayer Needed for subtitle vobsub viewing No 1.00 0.90 - ogmtools Needed for OGG/Vorbis No 1.5 1.0.0 - dvdxchap For chapter progress bar (ogmtools) No 1.5 1.0.0 - mjpegtools Needed for (S)VCD encoding No 1.6.2 1.6.0 - xine Can be used to view DVD's/files No 0.9.15 0.9.13 - fping Only for cluster mode master No 2.4 2.2 - hal Used for DVD device scanning No 0.5.7 0.5 - The following chapters describe the needed tools in detail, including information on how to get them. Additionally to the table above all need Perl modules are described also. 1.3.2 Perl 5.6.0 or better You need a recent Perl version on your system. Perl 5.8.0 is recommended, 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 should work also. dvd::rip won't start with Perl versions prior to 5.6.0. Actual distributions ship minimum 5.6.1, so this shouldn't be a real problem, anyway. 1.3.3 Perl Gtk Module For its GUI component dvd::rip needs the Perl Gtk module, which presumes Gtk+ version 1.2 or higher. I tested dvd::rip with Perl Gtk 0.7008. You can find the Gtk module on CPAN, e.g.: http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Gtk/ Note: Perl Gtk detects your installed Gtk libs and build subcomponents only if the correspondent Gtk library was found. dvd::rip needs the Gtk::Gdk::Pixbuf component which needs gdk-pixbuf to be installed on your system. So first make sure, that gdk-pixbuf is installed. Then install Perl Gtk and everything should work as expected. 1.3.3.1 Additional notes on building Perl Gtk (e.g. on Slackware) Stephen D. Leedle sent me these instructions, which describe how to build the Perl Gtk module on Slackware - but this should work for other distributions / operation systems which lack a complete Perl Gtk package also. First install the Perl modules XML::Parser and XML::Writer. If your distribution doesn't ship them, download the tarballs from here: http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/XML/XML-Parser-2.34.tar.gz http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/XML/XML-Writer-0.520.tar.gz They are neccessary for compiling the Gtk Perl module. Extract each of both packages, descend into the directories, do following: perl Makefile.PL make make test # (If You're keen on this, there might be no test...) make install # (The same procedure for the second one.) Get the source code for the Perl Gtk module as described above. Unpack and descend into directory and enter the following: perl Makefile.PL --without-guessing # this option is important make make test # (Again, the test is not mandatory) make install Now, the trick is following: by adding the --without-guessing option we got only very basic Gtk-Perl stuff. So we need to manually compile the Gtk::Gdk::Pixbuf module. Descend into the Gtk-Perl-0.7009/GdkPixBuf directory, and do again: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Now install the dvd::rip program as neccessary and hopefully - enjoy! Addendum on building GdkPixBuf Sam Waters gives this additional hint: If you receive error messages regarding the location of gtk/gtktypeutils.h try this: mkdir /usr/include/gtk cd /usr/include/gtk ln -s ../gtk-2.0/gtk/gtktypeutils.h 1.3.4 Locale::TextDomain Since version 0.52.0 dvd::rip is localized and uses the Perl modul Locale::TextDomain for that. Most Linux distributions ship the module as libintl-perl. If you want to install it from source you can get it from CPAN, as usual: http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Locale/ The tarball is called libintl-perl-x.xx.tar.gz. 1.3.5 transcode dvd::rip delegates all the low level video processing to transcode, which can be obtained from here: http://www.transcoding.org/ http://www.theorie.physik.uni-goettingen.de/~ostreich/transcode/ (old page) dvd::rip should work with the latest transcode releases (at least with the latest major stable release). Otherwise correspondent notes are added to the release notes resp. posted on the homepage. If you plan to create (S)VCD's you must compile transcode with the mjpeg export filter module. transcode's internal bbmpeg filter isn't supported yet. Note: For almost any Linux distribution binary transcode packages can be found. Compiling transcode sometimes isn't an easy task, in particular if you are not familiar with building packages, which have lots of dependencies. So you should try binary packages first. Refer to the binaries section for details. 1.3.6 Image Magick For image processing dvd::rip uses the widely distributed software package Image Magick, at least the programs identify and convert should be installed on your system. If your Linux distribution does not ship Image Magick, you can find it here: http://www.imagemagick.org/ 1.3.7 xvid4conf If you have transcode >= 0.6.9 you can use the xvid4 export module, which is transcode's binding to the upcoming XviD 1.0, resp. the dev-api-4 branch of xvidcore. With xvid4conf you can tweak all settings of the codec to increase quality. http://zebra.fh-weingarten.de/~transcode/xvid4conf/ 1.3.8 ogmtools dvd::rip has support for generating audio / video ogg streams (often known as OGM streams). You need a recent version of ogmtools for that to work: http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/ogmtools/index.html 1.3.9 subtitleripper To get subtitles with dvd::rip you need a recent version of the subtitleripper package. It's shipped with transcode in the contrib/subrip directory or you can fetch it from the subtitleripper homepage: http://sourceforge.net/projects/subtitleripper 1.3.10 mplayer and/or xine (with a DVD plugin) If you have mplayer or xine installed, you can preview selected DVD titles/chapters with the appropriate audio channels. You can download xine and mplayer from here: http://xine.sourceforge.net/ http://www.mplayerhq.hu/ 1.3.11 CD burning tools If you want to use dvd::rip's CD burning module, you must have the following tools installed: mkisofs cdrecord vcdimager cdrdao 1.3.12 rar (for vobsub compression) MPlayer supports vobsub files compressed with rar, but you need a 2.x version, 3.x and higher doesn't work. You can get a 2.x version locally from here: http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/contrib/rarlnx271.sfx.bin I suggest to install the binary to e.g. /usr/local/bin. Then configure this path using the Preferences dialog. 1.3.13 Additional requirements for cluster mode Some additional Perl modules and command line tools are needed for the cluster mode. 1.3.13.1 Perl modules Cluster mode needs the Storable and Event Perl modules. Check if your distribution ships them already. If not, you can find them on CPAN: http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Storable/ http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Event/ 1.3.13.2 fping The dvd::rip cluster control daemon uses fping to check if nodes are online. If fping isn't shipped with your Linux distribution you can get it from here: http://www.fping.com/ Note: Matthias Riese told me that there are IPv6 fping packages which don't support IPv4, which is most likely not what you want, so pay attention to get the right version ("ipv6" should not occur in the package name). dvd::rip expects fping to be installed set-uid root (because you hopefully don't run dvd::rip as root ;), which is not the default for most distributions. Please set the set-uid flag by typing this command as root: chmod u+s /usr/sbin/fping If fping is installed in another location, set a symlink to /usr/sbin/fping, because dvd::rip expects it there. Note: These steps are necessary only on the computer, where the cluster control daemon runs. All slave nodes of a dvd::rip cluster only need transcode installed, dvd::rip or any packages mentioned here aren't needed there. 1.4 Install from source 1.4.1 Install dvd::rip This is quite easy, if you have managed to install the packages mentioned above... ;) Download the .tar.gz archive of the dvd::rip version you want to install. Then extract the file, change into the created directory, generate the Makefile and execute make: # as a normal user tar xfz Video-DVDRip-0.97.12.tar.gz cd Video-DVDRip-x.xx perl Makefile.PL make make test If the "make test" reported no errors, you can install the files into your Perl library path. Usually you must be root to do this: # become root su make install You can ommit the "make install" step. But then you can execute the 'dvdrip' binary only from the build directory and you must put "." into your PATH, otherwise dvd::rip can't find its files. 1.4.2 Update dvd::rip Updating is just like installing. The only thing you should be aware of is switching the underlying Perl version. This way you easily can get two versions of dvd::rip installed in your system, because dvd::rip installs its libraries in your Perl library directory. Such a installation mixing isn't recommended unless you know exactly what you're doing. So it's better to remove the old version from the old Perl directory if you change the Perl version (refer to the uninstall chapter for details). Read the Changes file! I strongly suggest you should read at least the latest change log entry of the Changes file, resp. all entries of the versions you probably skipped in case of an update. It contains important release notes, e.g. about compatibility issues, and all relevant changes from release to release. Note: Changes on the unstable branch are logged in the file Changes.unstable. 1.4.3 Multiple dvd::rip versions in parallel It's possible to use several dvd::rip versions in parallel on your system, but you can install only one version using make install into your system directories. Just extract another dvd::rip version you want to use somewhere, enter the created directory (Video-DVDRip-x.xx) and execute perl Makefile.PL && make here (no make install). Add the actual directory to your PATH (export PATH=.:$PATH) and you can start this version with ./dvdrip from this directory. All files and libraries located in the actual distribution directory will be used. The . in PATH is neccessary, otherwise some dvd::rip helper binaries may be taken from another place. tar xvfz Video-DVDRip-0.97.12.tar.gz cd Video-DVDRip-x.xx perl Makefile.PL && make export PATH=.:$PATH ./dvdrip 1.5 Uninstall dvd::rip If you didn't use a package manager to install dvd::rip and you want to uninstall it, follow these instructions. This is necessary, if you accidentally mixed several versions on your system, which may result in a broken dvd::rip at all. In this case best thing is to remove all instances and to do a clean installation afterwards. dvd::rip mainly consists of a bunch of Perl modules which reside in the Perl library directory of your Perl interpreter. Easiest way to find this directory is to use the locate program. Then a few executables belong to dvd::rip, which also can be found using locate. This is an example session of how this works: % locate DVDRip.pm /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.0/Video/DVDRip.pm % rm -r /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.0/Video/DVDRip* % locate dvdrip /usr/bin/dvdrip /usr/bin/dvdrip-master % rm /usr/bin/{dvdrip,dvdrip-master,dr_splitpipe,dr_progress,dr_exec} In words: find a Perl library directory called Video with DVDRip.pm in it. Remove the DVDRip.pm file and the subdirectory called DVDRip. Then find the location of the binaries and remove them - see the list above. If you find multiple instances this way, remove them all. 1.6 Download this documentation You can download a static HTML version of this documentation: http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/dist/dvdrip-doc-html.tar.bz2 A PDF version is also available (generated using the excellent tool htmldoc): http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/dist/dvdrip-doc.pdf.bz2 _________________________________________________________________ IV.

SUPPORT Getting help If you encounter problems, which are not covered by the [3]documentation, in particular the [4]FAQ, subscribe to the [5]dvdrip-users mailing list and ask your question there (but not before you read all information on this page!). Eric S. Raymond wrote an excellent article about [6]"How To Ask Questions The Smart Way ". You probably want to take a look at it before posting ;) Reporting bugs and suggestions (*please* read this!) If you want to send a bug report, patch or feature request, please make sure, that you're using the most recent version of dvd::rip (at least the latest stable release). Also first check the [7]documentation, in particular the [8]FAQ, the [9]ChangeLog and the [10]mailing list archive to see, if the bug is reported and probably fixed already in the development release. For feature requests, please check if it's not already noted on the [11]TODO list. We all know, reading documentation is boring, but it saves time ;) Thanks. It's really important that you add the following information to your bug reports, otherwise you'll likely don't get any helpful answers (probably no answer at all, because for most people it's boring to ask for this again and again...): * a description of how the bug can be reproduced. * information about your Linux installation, in particular which distribution/version you are using * exact versions of all affected packages. That's always dvd::rip and transcode, but often a bunch of other packages are important, e.g. ogmtools (if it's about ogg/vorbis) or mjpegtools (if it's about (S)VCD processing) and so on. You can get a list of most of these version numbers by pressing Ctrl+D in the dvd::rip main window. * information about usage of binary packages or self compiled packages. In case of binary packages: from where did you get them. * if dvd::rip crashes or it looks like an internal dvd::rip bug and not like a bug of external command execution, add the output of "perl -V". * if a specific command executed by dvd::rip fails, grab the corresponding command line from the log and execute it by hand. It is important that you add the complete command line and the complete command output to your report. transcode related issues If dvd::rip mainly works for you but you encounter problems ripping specific DVDs, this is probably a transcode problem. Maybe you want to report this directly to the transcode developers resp. to the [12]transcode-users list. If you're not sure about this, report the problem to the dvdrip-users list, and we'll see, what we can do for you. But aware, that you may be pointed to the transcode-users list... ;) Encrypted DVD's Please note: copying encrypted DVD's is illegal in many countries. Also it's illegal to provide information about how this could be accomplished. So don't send any questions regarding encrypted DVD's or DVD cracking to the author of dvd::rip or to the dvd::rip mailing list. Corresponding mails will be silently ignored, correspondent posts will be removed from the mailing list archive without notification. Contribute with patches Patches are welcome, preferably unified context diffs created this way (if you're familiar with CVS, you should use the [13]CVS repository and create patches with CVS): cd Video-DVDRip-0.48.2.patched make realclean cd .. diff -urN Video-DVDRip-0.48.2 Video-DVDRip-0.48.2.patched > patchfile.txt where Video-DVDRip-0.48.2 is the root directory of the original distribution and Video-DVDRip-0.48.2.patched your modified version. Without the make realclean all files created during make are added to the patch, what's not what we want. If it simply works If dvd::rip works for you without any problems and you like it, don't hesitate to drop a mail. Next to all those problem and bug reports some positive postings delight every coders heart ;) Contact the author If you don't want to post to the mailing list for some reasons, you can contact me by mail. But be aware, that the response time may be longer, comparing to a list posting. The address is: [14]Jörn Reder .

CHANGES $Id: Changes.unstable,v 1.76 2006/07/02 13:50:26 joern Exp $ Revision history and release notes for dvd::rip. 0.97.12 [unstable branch] Sat Jul 2 2006, joern Notes: - New (optional) dependency: dvd::rip now uses HAL for DVD device scanning. - Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory 0.65 is required, which fixes a serious 0.64 bug. Features: - Dropped 'DVD image' ripping mode, but added a more generic approach of DVD input selection as a replacement. This way you can 'rip' from a DVD image e.g. to fulfill cluster mode requirements without hacking the DVD device preference anymore. Suggested by Stefan Ollermann . - Added DVD device scanning using HAL. This is optional, you can always select the DVD device file directly. - French splash screen and generally updated splash screen design by Christophe Combelles. - Updated italian translation by Fabio Russo. - Message finetuning, added more tooltips, updated German translation. Bugfixes: - Removed all preference settings and dependencies for CD burning, since this module doesn't exist anymore. - Fixed minor free diskspace calculation bugs.
