[Info] Path to dvd: /dev/sr0
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access
libdvdread: Could not open /dev/sr0 with libdvdcss.
libdvdread: Can't open /dev/sr0 for reading
[Error] Path thingy didn't work '/dev/sr0'
[Error] Try something like -i /cdrom, /dvd or /mnt/dvd
Any ideas ?
Well, some success is better then none, I guess.
What is the -i option you used? I would think -i /cdrom0/vobs would be the correct choice. Did you use auto or udf,iso9660 in your fstab file?
I wonder if the name has to be cdrom (instead of cdrom0) to make libdvdcss happy?
hmmm...
The Hedge
For Reference - I have not used vobcopy before:
Code:
vobcopy without any options will copy the title with the most chapters into files of 2GB size into the current working directory. Options
-b, --begin SIZE[bkmg] begins to copy from the specified offset-size. Modifiers like b for 512-bytes, k for kilo-bytes, m for mega- and g for giga-bytes can be appended to the number. Example: vobcopy -b 500m will start to copy from 500MB onward till the end.
-e, --end SIZE[bkmg] similar to -b, this options lets you specify some size to stop before the end.
-f, --force force the output to the specified directory even if vobcopy thinks there is not enough free space
-F, --fast fast_factor speed up the copying (experimental). fast_factor is in the range 1 to 64
-h, --help print the command line options available
-i, --input-dir INPUT-DIR provide vobcopy with the path to the mounted dvd drive
-l, --large-file write data into one file (needs large file support (LFS))
-m, --mirror mirrors the whole dvd to harddisk. It will create a directory named after the dvd and copy the ifo, bup and vob files there. The title-vobs are decrypted during this.
-n, --title-number TITLE-NUMBER specify which title vobcopy shall copy (default is title with most chapters). On the dvd, vts_01_x.vob specify the first title (mostly this is the main feature).
-o, --output-dir OUTPUT-DIR specify the output-directory of the data. "stdout" or "-" redirect to stdout. Useful for pipeing it to /dev/null ;-) If you forget to pipe it to some place, your terminal will get garbled, so remember that typing "reset" and then Enter will rescue you.
-q, --quiet all info- and error-messages of vobcopy will end up in the current directory in vobcopy.bla instead of stderr
-O, --onefile single_file(s)_to_rip specify which single file(s) to rip. Parts of names can be given and all files which include the part will be copied. Files can be listed with comma separation. Example: -O video_ts.vob,bup will copy the single file video_ts.vob and all files containing bup -t, --name NAME you can give the file a name if you don't like the one from dvd. -t hallo will result in hallo.vob. (stdout or "-" are deprecated now) If you want to give it names like "Huh I like this movie", do it in quotation marks.
-v, --verbose prints more information about whats going on (more verbose).
-v -v prints the information given on command line into a log-file in the current directory for inclusion into a bugreport.
-L LOGFILE-PATH tells vobcopy where to put the logfile instead of the default.
-I, --info prints information about the titles, chapters and angles on the dvd.
-V, --version prints version number.
-1, --1st_alt_output_dir AUXILIARY-OUTPUT-DIR1 if the data doesn't fit on the first output-directory (specified behind -o) writing will continue here (and after -2 there and -3 and -4) -> the files will be split according to the remaining free space (try specifying the path _directly_ behind -1, _no_ space in between if you have troubles, this might be even necessary at -o...)
