I made a little bash script for ripping audio from dvd..

Fill in the approriate tile, totaltracks and the source.

#!/bin/bash

export src=/media/cdrom0
export totaltracks=18
export title=02


export tracks=1

until [ $tracks -gt  $totaltracks ]; do
transcode -i $src -x dvd -T $title,$tracks,1 -a 0 -y raw -b 192 -m track-$tracks.mp3
let tracks+=1
done

I tried this since I also want to extract a bit of audio from a DVD, but lsdvd fails with a long list of errors looking kinda like this:

*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:778 ***
*** for pgc->cell_position_offset == 0 ***


*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:776 ***

Can't open ifo 15!

Same goes for when I try to transcode something. Long list of errors. Anyone know why this is so? I'm running Ubuntu Gutsy, latest Medibuntu and such.

Thanks!

Can you confirm that you have the proper video codec installed and can actually play this dvd?

If by this you mean can I play a dvd in regular old Totem? Then the answer is no. I've never been able to do that. Never under Edgy, Feisty or Gutsy, and right now Hardy won't do it either.

I've played my DVD's through VLC and that works fine, but I do know that VLC is a bit special.

I"m getting the same error; the dvd plays the menu just fine but when you choose 'play all' or select individual episodes, it just sits there.

Pressing the 'pause' button/key allows you to see that the movie is playing- the time code is updating- but nothing is sent to either the screen or the audio.

When I try to rip the entire audio from a DVD to an mp3 I am using

transcode -i /dev/dvd -x dvd -T 1,-1 -a 0 -y raw -m track-a.mp3

It works just fine until it gets to 1:25:29 and I get the following error.

Adding a new RIFF chunk: 32976], 95.87 fps, EMT: 1:25:29, ( 0| 0| 4)
Internal error in avilib - redefine NR_IXNN_CHUNKS
[avilib dump] cur_std_idx=32 NR_IXNN_CHUNKS=32POS=63753278968 towrite=549184
[transcode] warning : error encoding video frame
Segmentation fault00000-122977], 95.87 fps, EMT: 1:25:29, ( 0| 0| 4)

It produces a usable mp3 that will play perfectly except it ends at 1:25:29. It is doing this on 3 different DVD's at the exact same time and they are all longer than that. What could be causing this?

Cool thread.

Does this work no matter what protections are used on DVDs?

Thanks for the tutorial! I used it to rip some audio tracks from Babylon 5 episodes to listen to at work on my first-gen iPod Nano.

One thing I noticed about the tracks, however: While the tracks play perfectly on my iPod, they don't have any time info. Instead of running from 0:00 to 45:00 (or thereabouts), it goes from 0:00 to -0:00, and the progress bar doesn't change. More importantly, I can't pause and resume tracks. Instead, if I pause, I have to restart from the beginning, which isn't fun when the track is 45 minutes long. Any suggestions to fix this?

This script works very well. Just used it on a couple of concert DVDs. It also gives you the ability to change the bitrate. The OP's post gives you 128kbps mp3s, but with this script you can go higher if you like.

I straightened out my problem. I was using transcode with the "-T 1,-1" setting to convert an entire track to an MP3. When I encode like this, the time info is messed up on my iPod. However, when I specify individual chapters in a title, for example "-T 1,1,1", there is no problem.

Of course, when I'm dealing with a DVD containing 4 titles and each title has 6 chapters, that makes for a lot of typing. So I modified the excellent script supertux provided.

Here is what I used to encode Babylon 5, Season 1, Disk 2. Titles 1-4 contain episodes 5-8, and each title has 6 chapters.

#!/bin/bash

src=/media/cdrom0

title=1 #Set to number of first title track
total_titles=4 #set to maximum number of title tracks
total_chapters=6 #set to maximum number of chapters
season=1 #set to season number
audio_track=0 #set to 0 for English, other number for commentaries/other languages

until [ $title -gt $total_titles ]; do

chapter=1 #start at chapter 1
let episode="title + 4 " #set episode number

until [ $chapter -gt $total_chapters ]; do
transcode -i $src -x dvd -T $title,$chapter,1 -a $audio_track -y raw -b 192 -m b5_s${season}_e${episode}_c${chapter}.mp3
#converts DVD audio to MP3

let chapter+=1 #increment chapter
done

let title+=1 #increment title
done

This gives me a series of MP3 files specifying the series, episode, and chapter numbers. For example, "b5_s1_e4_c1.mp3" stands for "Babylon 5, Season 1, Episode 4, Chapter 1."
