IIRC until recently the "-t" option wasn't needed at all.. > Also I wasn't aware of the "mpeg2" video option (man page say nothing about > that). Indeed, the man page is "terse" :-) I guess I got that from the source code. > Hmmm,... not very convenient... a very usefull but > unfortunately hidden feature! :( > > Shouldn't we use an additional export switch for that? > > In that case DVBcut could automatically create the bash script > and write to it via pipe, without any user input except for the output > directory!

I agree, there should be a switch that simply activates sending to "/bin/sh -c "command_string", with command_string being configurable (default dvdauthor -t -o . ...). > ... that wouldn't be necessary with the above mentioned approach > since DVBcut could write the chapter string (with CLI switch, i.e. -c > 'pts1,pts2,pts3,...') directly to the temporary script... :-)) Yes, the chapter marks could be set that way, but.. > Or do you want the XML file to create a menu? .. the more general features have to be set with an XML file. > PS: BTW,... just in case someone does not know... > With that procedure it's also possible to have multiple movies (with > different > specifications!) in one DVD structure since titelsets can be created with > sucessive 'dvdauthor -t...' calls ! :) Indeed. > PSPS: Any idea if that also would work on windows? Basically it should -- AFAIK there are pipes.
