mkvcreate v0.2 --------------- mkvcreate rips the given titles from a DVD and encodes them in XViD format. They are stored in a Matroska container with all the available audio streams copied verbatim (in AC3 format) and all the available subtitle streams copied verbatim (in VobSub format). The resulting file can be played with any of the audio or subtitle languages from a single file. One file per title is created. Titles may be given on the commandline or if none are given then all titles will be copied from the DVD. The audio can be encoded in Ogg Vorbis using the --ogg command line switch. To use mkvcreate you will need: mencoder & mplayer with xvid support lsdvd mkvtoolnix realpath cd-discid If you want to use Ogg Vorbis encoding you will also need: ffmpeg vorbis-tools Running mkvcreate with no options will rip the entire dvd from /dev/dvd to the current directory. Running mkvcreate with a list of title numbers will just rip those titles. Options can be specified on the commandline to rip to different directories and from different devices. See the mkvcreate(1) manpage for more details.
