Re: duplicating a dvd video
What i did originally was to run dvdbackup on the original dvd video. I inserted it and ran: dvdbackup -i /dev/cd1 -o /path/to/backup/area -M k3b could do the job for you, just as an option. It automates an operation and doesn't need a manual intervention.

Re: duplicating a dvd video
Hello, I'm not running x on this box so k3p wouldn't be an option here. Is there another way something with growisofs?

For get about fancy tools or even dd. Simply use # cp /dev/cd1 backup.iso This way you don't even have to worry about the block size (like with dd). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
duplicating a dvd video
Hello, I asked about this a while back and got some good feedback. The issue is it isn't happening. To recap i've got some family-made dvd videos that i've been asked to duplicate. They are quite lengthy and as i discovered won't fit on to a single layer dvd, so i got a three-pack, which i've already killed two, duel-layered dvds. My dvd writer can burn duel-layer dvds and the players can all play them so that's not an issue. What i did originally was to run dvdbackup on the original dvd video. I inserted it and ran: dvdbackup -i /dev/cd1 -o /path/to/backup/area -M which created a folder under there called video_ts. A segway i put in a movie in to the dvd drive, mounted it and checked it out that also has the video_ts folder so i'm sure that's what has to go on the dvd. I put in one of the blanks and do: growisofs -Z /dev/cd1 -dvd-video /path/to/backup/area which upon mounting the resulting dvd i confirmed that it does have a video_ts folder on it. My issue is when i try to play them i'm getting disk read errors. The only thing i can think of is i have to make iso images first, but i'd like confirmation on this or an idea of what i've missed before i try this again, i'd really not like to burn another coaster.

Re: duplicating a dvd video
In Chapter 18.6.6 of the FreeBSD Handbook, you'll find instructions for creating an iso image from a data CD using the program dd. dd works for DVD's as well. You can then burn the iso image to a DVD using growisofs (see: man growisofs). You can find Chapter 18.6.6 at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html Good luck, Andrew L.
