Re: [FFmpeg-user] Can FFmpeg fetch a title from a DVD?

[Andy Civil]

Thank you for all the suggestions.

I want to stick to open-source if possible, on principle.

I tried MPlayer, but I got an error; libdvdread complained that it couldn't open the file with 
libdvdcss. Not sure why. It seemed to open the DVD OK, because it told me the correct number of 
titles on it.


I'm guessing that FFmpeg can't do it, since I got the alternative suggestions.

I've found somewhat of a workaround with VLC (not sure if that's technically FOSS or not) that I can 
live with, if there's no FFmpeg solution.


Thanks!

[FFmpeg-user] Can FFmpeg fetch a title from a DVD?

[Andy Civil]

Can anyone tell me if there's a command to fetch a title (this is DVD-speak for a 'track') from a 
DVD file structure? I have a DVD structure in a VIDEO_TS folder, and I want to fetch title #7 from 
it, and convert it to something. This requires FFmpeg to be aware of the DVD menu structure, and I'm 
not sure that it is. (I've been trying to use VLC which definitely can, but I've had other issues 
there.)


I know that FFmpeg can work directly with the VOB files, but that doesn't help me when I don't know 
where Title #7 starts, or ends.  Sometimes, there are multiple VOB files, and I don't even know 
which VOB Title #7 is in...


Thanks!
