I said it before and I will say it again – dvdrip<\/a> is by far the best graphical user interface for ripping and encoding DVDs on Linux.<\/p>\n

dvdrip<\/code> provides a user with simple, but powerful means of controlling a whole bunch of command line utitilies that have a gadzillion options each. Instead of scrolling through the manuals and Googling for examples, one could just click around with the mouse and use many sensible defaults.<\/p>\n

I’ve been using dvdrip<\/code> for a few years now and I never had a problem. That is until I tried to run it on Fedora Linux 4. I have to say that I installed dvdrip<\/code> with all the requirements using yum<\/code>. I guess most of the software came from FreshRPMS.net<\/a>, but I am not very sure.<\/p>\n

Anyway, when I tried dvdrip<\/code> on Fedora Linux 4 I ran into problem. It was ripping DVDs just fine, but it didn’t want to encode them. I was getting all sorts of errors mentioning absense of codecs that I knew I had and segmentation faults that are always not so easy to explain.<\/p>\n

With a few Google queries I found out that the problem wasn’t in the dvdrip<\/code><\/strong> itself. It was in the transcode<\/code> utility. You see, yum<\/code> installs transcode-1.0.0 for Fedora Linux 4<\/strong>. This version of transocde is not very stable yet. The solution to the problem is to downgrade to transcode-0.6.14<\/strong>, which comes packaged for Fedora Core 3. As soon as the old transcode is in place everything works smoothly as always.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
