Here is a short guide for making a quick "backup" of
|
|
your shiny new multi-angle DVD.
|
|
NOTE: Please make sure, the DVD explicitly allows you to make a backup copy.
|
|
|
|
(0) insert your DVD;-)
|
|
(1) switch to a new empty directory $MY_PATH/DVD/ on your hard drive.
|
|
(2) if /dev/dvd is a link to your block device, use tccat's new -P option
|
|
|
|
tccat -i /dev/dvd -P 1 | split -b 1024m - VTS_01_
|
|
|
|
This will result in a couple of files named
|
|
|
|
VTS_01_aa, VTS_01_ab, ...
|
|
|
|
(once LFS is fully working, a single file should be sufficient (???),
|
|
i.e., "tccat -i /dev/dvd -P 1 > VTS_01_1.VOB").
|
|
|
|
(3) copy the IFO files by hand. For this, you will need to mount the DVD:
|
|
|
|
mount /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd
|
|
cp /mnt/dvd/VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO .
|
|
|
|
You also need the title IFO file. In this case
|
|
cp /mnt/dvd/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_0.IFO .
|
|
|
|
umount /mnt/dvd
|
|
|
|
(4) rename the chunks, first file is VTS_01_1.VOB, not VTS_01_0.VOB. The
|
|
latter contains still pictures and the like (?).
|
|
|
|
mv VTS_01_aa VTS_01_1.VOB
|
|
mv VTS_01_ab VTS_01_2.VOB
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
(5) repeat step (2-4) for other titles, you wish to keep. In most cases,
|
|
the main title will do. Note that the Example after you're done:
|
|
|
|
$>ls -l .
|
|
total 5529180

|
|

|
|

|

|
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:08 VTS_01_3.VOB
|
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:10 VTS_01_4.VOB
|
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:12 VTS_01_5.VOB
|
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 287461376 Jan 13 18:12 VTS_01_6.VOB
|
|
|
|
(6) test your copy, you need to provide an absolute path to
|
|
the backup directory:
|
|
|
|
tcprobe -i $MY_PATH/DVD -T 1
|
|
tccat -i $MY_PATH/DVD -T 1,C,A | [mplayer|xine|...] -
|
|
|
|
and optionally check other titles, chapters (C) or even viewing angles (A).
|
|
|
|
(7) Please note this backup copy is suitable for navigation with import
|
|
module "-x dvd". If you prefer the cluster mode, you need to
|
|
apply my cluster mini guide to this copy of your DVD or the DVD in your
|
|
drive. The program stream contains full navigation and angle information.
|
|
These information are not preserved using the -T option with tccat.
|
|
|

|
|
|
Hint: It does not make sense to apply the procedure to all titles
|
|
found with tcprobe, since a lot of titles share VTS* files and IFO files.
