So I'm having a heck of a time ripping with MythDVD. No worries as I
really don't care to if I can avoid it. I have a ton of dvds already
ripped and burnt and simply want to copy a few of them to disk now

showing stuff in the mythconverg db via perl fun to do this.
Any pointers?
Copy the files into the Video folder (That MythVideo is looking at),
and go into "Setup -> Video Manager" on the Frontend, which will
automatically discover all the new files you've just added. Then
scroll to each one, press the "Menu" key (M, usually) and choose
"Search IMDB" to get all the metadata for the video.
It doesn't seem that MythVideo can handle whole DVDs in the video
dir. At least when I copied one over and pulled up the Video Manager
it listed each file in the VIDEO_TS directory individually. None of
them were playable either.
I hunted down the info needed to get the transcode daemon running and
ripped a small title of a DVD at "perfect" quality. I ended up with
a single .vob file, went to Video Manager to get it recognize,
browsed over to MythVideo and ... nothing, doesn't play.
I must be missing something.
