incomplete. DVDShrink should be part of WineTools but I removed it because of legal issues in Germany (yes, the witch-hunt started here also). The Base setup (which creates a suitable config) of WineTools works quite good with DVDShrink. You have to add ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------- ; DVD Shrink [AppDefaults\\DVD Shrink 3.2.exe\\Version] "Windows" = "win2k" [AppDefaults\\DVD Shrink 3.2.exe\\DllOverrides] "*" = "builtin, native" ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------- at the end of the config after you performed the Base setup. To start DVDShrink use the following script: ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------- !/bin/bash . findwine cd "$WINEDIR/c/Program Files/DVD Shrink" mount_cd $WINE "c:\\program files\\DVD Shrink\\DVD Shrink 3.2.exe" ${PARAM:+"$PARAM"} &>/dev/null & wait $! umount_cd ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------- Note that until know I know of nobody being able to watch the video or listen to the audio streams from a DVD with the software. But shrinking, copying and reorganizing a new DVD is possible. You have to save it to disk and burn with some Linux software. If somebody here knows of a better way with integrated burning I would be happy to know of it. DVDShrink is one of the very rare programs with no *real* alternative under Linux.
