Plus, I just don't give up easy when I think something SHOULD work a certain way. Well, if it were just me I might, but I'm building a Media center and the GAF (girlfriend acceptance factor) as well as my boys (4 and 8 ) sorta require a more seamless approach. You are probably thinking, so what, that's close enough, just go with it and turn on/off subtitles as needed per movie.
Playing with Forced subtitles only turned on gets me the forced subtitles. On the other hand, using the same command to rip DaVinci Code results in a file with proper English subtitles. Playing with forced subtitles only results in no subtitles at all, but playing with subtitles on plays what I want to see onscreen. Also, in the rip the language ID seems to be lost, but by experimenting I found that forcing mplayer to play sid 0 got it working to a point.įor Kill Bill vol 1, this grabs the Forced Subtitles only, but doesn't appear to save them AS forced subtitles. Basically, with vlc you have to manually turn the subtitles on at every point where forced subtitles are in the original. VLC does a bad job with video created from the Kill Bill DVD (my main test movie so far), in that the option to select the subtitle doesn't even show up unless you are in a spot where forced subtitles would show up (noticed it by accident). Mplayer -sid 0 -forcedsubsonly $OUTFILE Part of the trouble has been actually getting the player to show the subtitles, so I may have captured them in previous tests but didn't realize it. First, I have a number of DVDs in which I have only been able to get to rip using vlc (vlc -sout "#standard" Unfortunately I'm running up against two issues. I have decided that space is not as important as quality, so my preference is just a straight rip, no transcoding to other formats. I need to (re)rip my DVD collection to disk for use in a media center ( MythTV). It's possible my brain was mush and just missed the solution. I've been searching, and experimenting for a few days and just can't get it to work.
If this is covered somewhere, please direct me.
