DVD to AVI
Hey All,
Ok, I understand how to do avi to dvd converting. But now I would like to learn how to go the other way around, without the use of the guiness. I looked around online and came up with the command: Code:
cat *VOB | nice -+19 mencoder -oac copy -o mymovie.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1000:vhq:vpass=2:vqmin=2:vqmax=31 - Code:
Too many video packets in the buffer: (4096 in 8259436 bytes). Code:
nice -19 cat *VOB | nice -19 mencoder -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=128 -aid 128 - However, when I ran this it also gave the same "too many packets in buffer" error. However the sound appears to be ok, even though it shows it made 10 hours out of a 2 hour movie. My video from the previous command appears to be ok. With the exception of the sound being off. Any ideas on something I may have done wrong? Or maybe some info about that error message? Thanks, DragonM15 |
Take a look at dvd::rip. It does a nice job. http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/

Thu May 17 15:39:56 2007 Start job 'Transcode multipass - title #17' Code:
Playing Resident_Evil-017.avi. For my video settings I have it set to the xvid4 codec, 2-pass encoding, zoom to full frame, and my audio is set to the default. Also, I can play the VOB file I am trying to convert in the 'Rip Title' tab and/or just open the VOB file via mplayer. Any ideas what is causing this to happen? Thanks, DragonM15 |
I have also tried the xvid codec. The DivX4 and 5 give me errors.

since it says it's opening ffmpeg to try to view the stream, try encoding with that. ffmpeg always works the best for me anyway.

I usually just use dvd::rip to get the separate vob titles. I then use avidemux2 to convert them into whatever I need.

I have used dvd::rip to make an .avi from a DVD a while back.
Here's one of the log files that was generated: Code:
# Movie information file. Generated by dvd::rip; http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip |
I changed everything so that it is exactly as your config looks to be. The versions of dvdrip and transcode I am using is:
Code:
sh-3.1$ dvdrip --version Code:
mencoder dvd://1 -dvd-device /home/user/resident/RESIDENT_EVIL/ -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=1 -aid 128 -oac copy -o /dev/null && mencoder dvd://1 -dvd-device /home/user/resident/RESIDENT_EVIL/ -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=2:bitrate=1000 -aid 128 -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 -o resident.avi DragonM15 |

Avidemux can open .vob files (as well as most others). .vob files are just mpeg2 files. |
hello,
if you want to convert a DVD to avi try the following with mencoder. mencoder dvd://X -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=5000 myavi.avi where X is the title number from the dvd. Maybe you can use the parameter -dvd_device /Path/to/the/dvd/files. for more options check the docs under /usr/share/docs/packages/mplayer they have a lot of good examples there. HTH |

Karpi, you command works wonders and does exactly what i wanted to do. Thanks! DragonM15 |
and it still doesnt work in dvdrip for some reason.... I tried telling it to encode the dvd on the fly, and the dvd doesnt even spin. Just something to add to the question of why this isnt working with dvdrip.
