NAME


vobcopy - copy (rip) files from a dvd to the harddisk

SYNOPSIS


vobcopy [-b size[bkmg] ] [-e size[bkmg] ] [-f] [-F fast_factor ] [-h] [-i input-dir ] [-l]
[-m] [-M][-n title-number ] [-o output-dir ] [-q] [-O single_file(s)_to_rip ] [-t name ]
[-v [-v]] [-x] [-I] [-V] [-L logfile-path ] [-1 aux_output_dir1 ] [-2 aux_output_dir2 ]
[-3 aux_output_dir3 ] [-4 aux_output_dir4 ]

DESCRIPTION


vobcopy copies DVD .vob files to harddisk (thanks to libdvdread) and merges them into
file(s) with the name extracted from the DVD. It checks for enough free space on the
destination drive and compares the copied size to the size on DVD (in case the size is
wrong the files keep the .partial ending ). It should definitely work on linux and now on
FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Solaris and MacOSX too!

theCSSissue: Due to possible legal issues, vobcopy doesn't include any code to descramble
CSS "enhanced" DVDs. CSS is sold by the DVD industry as a "copy protection", though it's
more of a "view protection" as it makes DVDs unviewable with unlicensed players. Some
people have hacked CSS decryption routines, and one of those is available as a libdvdread
counterpart. So if you have such a DVD, have a look at the libdvdread page. If you are
positive that it's allowed where you live, you can just install that mentioned library and
make decrypted backups of all your DVDs...

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, --longest
choose the title with the longest playing time. With some DVDs this gets the main
title better than the most chapter method, with others it's worse.

-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.

-x overwrite all existing files without further questions.

-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...)
