#2208closedenhancement (fixed)

Although MPlayer can also be used, FFmpeg seems more refined when dumping or clipping specific audio chapters from DVD or Blu-Ray media. Root # emerge -ask media-video/ffmpeg (If somebody successfully uses MPlayer/MPlayer2 to dump PCM specified chapters, feel free to add it to this Wiki page and retitle appropriately. Does any body know how to extract subtitles from a dvd or a vob file with ffmpeg? I could get fine working.sub and.idx files via mencoder command: mencoder dvd://1 -vobsubout subtitle -vobsuboutindex 0 -vobsuboutid it -sid 10 -nosound -ovc copy -o 1.avi but i get a huge temporary file (1.avi) witch is the entire video stream. I hope that ffmpeg could handle subtitle extraction without video.

In this tutorial, I will show you a simple way to RIP DVD into a single file using FFmpeg command line tool in Linux.

Install FFmpeg in Ubuntu/Debian/Linux Mint

Now copy contents of your DVD to local folder and cd into that folder(eg: video_ts)

1. RIP DVD into a single file

Now enter below command to start riping process in optimum quality, If you want to control the size (eg: limit size to 700MB) of the ripped file, then use the third command

2. RIP DVD with deinterlace option

If you want enable deinterlace option run below commnad

3. RIP DVD with quality option

Use below command to reduce size and quality of output file, Here the ‘-crf’ option sets the quality of the ripped file. The range of the CRF scale is 0–51, where 0 is lossless , 23 is the default, and 51 is the worst quality possible.

Above command will read all video files in a folder and pipe the stream to FFmpeg command, after the successful completion of the command you can find the ripped file with name rip.mp4
