slacky.eu

Hi,

I have a fresh install of Slackware 10.2, and I want to use it, among other things, for playing and ripping DVDs, as well as for various audio tasks.

I tried the DVDRIP-megapack from slacky.it, but transcode complains about segfault. It't not really a problem, because I want to setup things step by step, and check each package for good functioning as I compile it.

There are quite a few libraries, codecs and things to install to have full-blown multimedia potential.

Question 1: what other libraries/codecs except those in the dvdrip-megapack do I need?

Question 2, more important: in what order do you suggest to compile/install them? I'm especially confused about ffmpeg, divx4linux and these things.

Question 3: where can I find the build scripts that were used to build the packages here in the dvdrip-megapack? I want to try the options used here, step by step, and see what goes right or wrong in what place.

mille grazie, e possibile rispondere in italiano, lo comprendo un poco ma non posso scribere bene

Ciao,

PS: reading my message now, I think there is some confusion. I tried the DVDrip-megapack only to give it a shot, but I want to build everything from source, that's what I mean.

Why do you use Dvdrip?
For ripping and copying DVD you need Lxdvdrip.
I think DVDRip is useful for tranformation of DVD to DivX.
Download lxdvdrip and its dependencies and the how-to from this site.

see you

from the dvdrip megapack README file:

Per installare dovete eseguire questo semplice comando:
tar xjvf dvdrip-megapack.tar.bz2
cd dvdrip-megapack
upgradepkg --install-new *.tgz

it seems that there isn't a specific order: you can install everything as you want using about the dependencies... again the README says that ALL dep.'s are resolved by the megapack, anyway you can use the "ldd" command obtaining the dependency list for all binaries...

for the slackbuild: have a look into the "source" directory of the repository (under the megapack download directory)

bye,
M.

Thank you very much! Mille grazie!
