I'll look into those ideas tomorrow (it's evening here after a long week of short nights and much adrenalin). Well, using undvd stripped out an 86MB .avi file, which I've uploaded to the Web site. The sound came out just fine in ogg, but I haven't got a usable mp3 out of it yet. Is there a way to stream an avi file through a browser? Just clicking on it in Firefox causes it to be downloaded first, which might well put people off when it takes so long. -- Rgds Peter

FWIW I don't believe undvd's AVI files to be very specification compliant. The author implemented .mp4 support after I pointed this out to him, and I have found those to be very good indeed - they play on a variety of systems (PS3, Mac) and with very good quality (use the 2-pass option). ...

I think all the videos you see streamed on the web are stored as .flv files. mplayer can convert to .flv, then it looks like you upload it - and a player - to your server along with a little HTML.

I assume the material is not under restricted copyright. Stroller.

It's too big, though, at nearly 1 GB, so I wondered about extracting just the audio from it and putting that up instead. You would use something like mplayer. I think undvd produces a separate audio track as a by-product of ripping the DVD to .avi or .mp4 You might try running that on the disk looking at what's created during the process. Stroller.

Is there a Gentoo-ish way of doing this, or should I start messing about with bits of wire and other equipment?
