rdvdp - easy dvd ripping script

whukes · 2009-03-07 05:22:33

rdvdp is a script I wrote to make backing up DVDs to x.264 simple and fast. It uses handbrake and dvdbackup

What I wanted was a simple bash script where I could pop in a dvd, run the script with no special options, and come back 45min later with a nice x.264 rip. the other task I wanted the script to handle was being able to rip a dvd with episodes on it (tv shows, etc.). rdvdp handles both cases with ease.

Looks very nice - I will try it out when I have the time.

Looks like you mad a typo in
echo " It's auotmatic! Version: 0.2"

Maybe you can bump the version

Zl.

Great script! Comes in handy now that I'm beginning to move all my movies to the computer. One thing though: Older dvds that don't have any title set doesn't seem to work. It just says "title not found" and then exits the script. Not a big deal for me since I only had one of those around. Don't know if it's an issue with handbrake, dvdbackup or the script itself. Anyways, Thank you!

Bash doesn't have some sort of built in character limit for variable names you know...

Forgive my ignorance but I'm trying to compile dvdbackup but am unsure of the libdvdread directories. The install instructions are:

Compile dvdbackup.c in the src dir like this gcc -o dvdbackup -I/my/prefix/to/libdvdread/include -L/my/prefix/to/libdvdread/lib -ldvdread dvdbackup.c

From what I can gather is libdvdread 'includes' reside at /usr/include/dvdread and the 'lib' is in /usr/lib but this doesn't seem to be working. Any help or knowledge would be appreciated.

tuxer.

ahha. you may want to make sure that ${TITLE[INDEX]} is not null... especially if the $DOUT is set to the home dir, which it is by default.

rm -rf ${DOUT}/${TITLE[INDEX]}

... and yes, it did rm my home dir.

always do `grep rm script.sh` before you run any script from the interweb. lol i bet you got a good backup.
