AcidRip is a Gtk2::Perl application for ripping and encoding DVD's. It neatly wraps MPlayer and MEncoder, which I think is pretty handy, seeing as MPlayer is by far the best bit of video playing kit around for Linux. As well as creating a simple Graphical Interface for those scared of getting down and dirty with MEncoders command line interface, It also automates the process in a number of ways: * Parses DVD into contents tree * Finds longest title * Calculate video bitrate for given filesize * Finds black bands and crops them * Gives suggestions for improved performance * Other stuff! ----------------------------------------------------------------- It still doesn't rip DVDs.;) It is a very simple mencoder problem. I think the default codec parameters don't work. Please help me debug it. You have to patch ${WRKSRC}/AcidRip/acidrip.pm I am sure changing vcodec=mpeg4 to vcodec=mpeg2 will work but that is evil. ;) Here is the port. http://sirsasana.org/ports/acidrip.tgz Help wanted! ;) Thanks. -Girish
