Basic Info
This section deals with two actions:
Extracting & decrypting ('ripping') the raw data off the DVD
Demultiplexing (demuxing) the audio streams from the resulting file and creating an index file for the video data.
Ripping the DVD
Start up DVD Decrypter and choose your DVD drive in the drop down box.
Choose IFO (InFormatiOn file) in 'Mode'.
Select the PGC (ProGram Chain) that matches the length of your movie (may be auto-selected):
Choose your save location
Click the Rip button. Once this process completes you will be left with:
One large vob file (the video and audio data),
If you didn't set DVD Decrypter to create only one VOB file, you will end up with a number of 1gb sized VOBs. Just use the first one for the next step.
An ifo file (part of the DVD file structure),
The OGG format chapter file (open it up to see how the chapters are stored),
A stream information file (with information on the audio and video streams in the vob).
Demuxing the audio and creating the d2v index
Start up MeGUI
Go Tools -> File Indexer
Select the .vob file from DVD Decrypter as the Video Input
Choose "all audio tracks" under "audio demux"
Choose the location to save the d2v file to
Click "queue", then wait for the indexer to complete.
Go back to the main screen and click on the tab. Click the button to create the d2v.
Once you've done this, proceed to the next section: encoding the audio.
