Package: dvdisaster Version: 0.66-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch wow, dvdisaster is starting to appear really crippled (at least from where i'm standing).
it's late and i'm tired of writing bug reports for what now appears to be deliberate on the part of the author, so i'll try to keep this short. the following patch allows dvdisaster to operate on encrypted/copyrighted DVDs. the patch was tested by "reading" an encrypted/copyrighed DVD and playing the resulting ISO file (on a loopback device) with mplayer. yeah, you'll never be able to make an exact copy of a DVD that includes CSS (except maybe on a consumer DVD drive with a hacked firmware) with the keys being written on the disc's lead-in and all, and maybe that's why the author disabled operating on those DVDs, but this doesn't present a problem to me, so dvdisaster shouldn't care and make this so difficult (having to patch the source and all). explanation: i plan on using dvdisaster to create ECC files for all my movies, and if/when the discs fail in the future, i can recreate the image with dvdisaster, create a decoded copy with vobcopy, and burn that for viewing on DVD players. of course i could always do that from the beginning, but i don't want to have to deal with storing a full copy when i can just store a relatively small ECC file. plus, dual-layer DVD+/-R discs should be reasonably priced by the time i need to recreate a movie. corey -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.6-ubuntu1-22.33+vs2.0.1.3+1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages dvdisaster depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.11.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.0.4-1+b1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-5.1 generic font configuration ii libglib2.0-0 2.10.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.16-1 The GTK+ graphical user ii libpango1.0-0 1.12.1-2 Layout and rendering of ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System protocol ii libxcursor1 1.1.3-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous ii libxfixes3 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous ii libxi6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System Input ii libxinerama1 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System multi-head ii libxrandr2 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System Resize, Rotate ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-1 X Rendering Extension client Versions of packages dvdisaster recommends: ii dvdisaster-doc 0.66-2 data loss/scratch/aging -- no debconf information
