Hi, Thoggen 0.2 has just been released. Get it from: ?http://thoggen.net/download/ In addition to the source tarball there is also a .deb package for debian sid available. ------------------------ What is Thoggen? ------------------------ Thoggen is a DVD backup utility ('DVD ripper') for Linux, based on Gtk+ and GStreamer. It creates ogg/theora video files and features an extremely easy and intuitively to use interface. Thoggen supports picture cropping and resizing. ---------------------------- Major Changes in 0.2 ---------------------------- * New features: - Language selection for audio track - Pausing/Unpausing of encoding possible - DVD drive detection for 2.4 kernels - Choice of quality or file-size target - Check free disk space before encoding and regularly during encoding; pause automatically just before running out of disk space. * Improved DVD drive and medium detection: - should work for Linux 2.4 kernels now - fixed DVD disc detection for some cases - do media check polling ourselves if required - check THOGGEN_DVD_DRIVE_DEVICE environment variable (for non-Linux kernels, or if the existing detection methods fail). * Configuration dialog improvements: - restore previously used filename for same title * Use slightly less memory and renice at startup, so that thoggen only uses CPU cycles that are not needed for more important things. * Preview right title in case where some of the titles on the DVD have been hidden. ------------------------ Requirements ------------------------ * Gtk+ 2.4.9 or newer * GStreamer 0.8.7 or newer * gst-plugins 0.8.7 or newer * GStreamer plugins required (debian package names in brackets): - a52dec (gstreamer0.8-a52dec) - mpeg2dec (gstreamer0.8-mpeg2dec) - dvdreadsrc (gstreamer0.8-dvd) - dvddemux (gstreamer0.8-misc) - videoscale (gstreamer0.8-misc) - theoraenc (gstreamer0.8-theora) - rawvorbisenc (gstreamer0.8-vorbis) - oggmux (gstreamer0.8-misc) - audioconvert (gstreamer0.8-misc) - audioscale (gstreamer0.8-misc) - ffmpegcolorspace (gstreamer0.8-misc) * libdvdread3 >= 0.9.4 * dbus, dbus-glib * hal and libhal More information is available at http://thoggen.net Enjoy!
