Hi Sid, What version of suse are you using? If you are using 9.1 personal from the free download then you will need to download the c progtaming packages from the suse ftp site. Use yast and software and install or uninstall then choose package groups and development. Then check them and then click at the bottom to accept. After this your program should find them. if not well I've led you up the garden path and I hope you had some fun. I am doing this from memory and the wording on the items amy be a bit different, but you'll get it. Chris

Hi Sid, you need kernel-sources.rpm for your kernel. Use yast, or apt to get them. I found out that for some versions you need to follow the instructions already posted:

...

cd /usr/src/linux make cloneconfig make prepare

But sometimes it works just out of the box. I needed to do this with the latest kernel for 9.1 (2.8.5-111 I think).

Sunny

Slightly off, it was I who suggested that to Aaron Bridge. I'm using 9.2 with kernel.org kernels. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer =====LINUX ONLY USED HERE=====

Hi all, As a few suggested, especially Sunny with full details, I compiled dvdbackup for linux 9.1. As a test, tried 2 dvd's. One worked fine, the second had problems. It looks like it gets confused with titles or something!

~/dvdbackup/src # ./dvdbackup -F -i /dev/dvdrecorder -o /home/plain/blackorpheus/blackorpheus

libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access

libdvdread: Attempting to retrieve all CSS keys libdvdread: This can take a _long_ time, please be patient

libdvdread: Get key for /VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.VOB at 0x00000121 libdvdread: Elapsed time 0 libdvdread: Get key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_0.VOB at 0x0000015c libdvdread: Elapsed time 0 libdvdread: Get key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB at 0x00005486 libdvdread: Elapsed time 0 libdvdread: Found 1 VTS's libdvdread: Elapsed time 0 Floating point exception

Any ideas?

Anyway, fyi, I mounted the dvd with konqueror and copied all the files to a directory. Then I tried to open the individual .vob files with mplayer and they...Played!!!! But the bup and _ts files are not readable! Is that supposed to happen?

thanks, d.

mplayer will play almost everything you throw in, any media stream, even broken/unfinished ones. So it has no problem to read a VOB file. Try this: mplayer -dvd-device /path/to/my/copy dvd://1 to see if it can read the inf and bop files. you may try it with -v option to see for any problems. Also, try dvdbackup as well with more verbose mode. It looks lime more as dvdbackup problem, not libdvdread, but I'm not sure. Try to contact the dvdbackup guy, he is very responsive. You may try as well -t 1, and/or -T 1 options for dvdbackup to see if it will copy a single titleset (-T) or a single title (-t).
