Free cucusoft ultimate dvd video converter suite pro 7.6 software for linux

media-box is a program to watch all kind of multimedia files using a computer.
It suports playing DVD video, VideoCD, various movie files, Audio CD, various music files and watching various still pictures.
Main goal of this project is to have a dedicated computer in your living room by replacing your Hi-Fi component (DVD-player, CD-player). media-box runs in a linux environment so the need for computer power is very low.
Prefered system is a computer with at least 466MHz Celeron with 128MB of ram. Disk space is minimal, it works on 1GB partition but it can sure fit on a partition of 150MB or even less.
As it considers the sound output it is considered to have a sound card with digital out capabilities, so you can easily connect your computer with a dedicated external Dolby Digital receiver, but this is optional.
Graphics card should have a TV-Out feature, so you can watch your media content on TV. For getting the remote control over the whole program, you should make a hardware receiver or you can even buy one. Just make sure it is lirc compatible.
Software used to make this hardware work:
- debian - linux distribution
- xine-lib - library to play media content
- ati.2 - ATI drivers for XFree86 4.2.1 - to get TVOut working
- alsa - SB Live! drivers to get digital out sound
- lirc - remote control software
Enhancements:
- created upgrade script so on pressing n in main window will start an upgrade
- fixed start.sh script to use the /media-box/XF86Config-4 file
- size of screen is now calculated from the width and height of the back.jpg picture (was fixed to 800x600) - beware tvout works only on 800x600.
- fixed background of movie so it is black now. Subtitles of new xine lib displayed background image.
- added new types of files to play (based on extension)
- audio
- aac
- mp4

ByzantineOS is a software Internet Appliance with a home entertainment bias. It is based on a networked Linux distribution/bootable system with Mozilla providing access to a range of services and applications.
ByzantineOS fits in 32MB (or 48MB) of media and should work on any PC.
Note:With ByzantineOS CD-ROM, there is no need of hard-disks, floppy drives and others. All is needed is a diskless computer with the following parts:
CPU (Intel Pentium)
Motherboard
NIC (Network Interface Card) or MODEM
CD-ROM drive (or DVD drive to play DVD-Video disks!!!)
RAM (128 MB minimum for full graphics)
VESA 2.0 compliant graphic card
The ByzantineOS boots from a CD (business card-sized) and the first thing you will see is a basic menu which allows different types of booting options. These are:
ByzantineOS (Generic): 800x600 framebuffer
ByzantineOS (Generic HiRes) : 1024x768 framebuffer
Now once inside the ByzantineOS type:
startx
to start the X Windows system.

dvdbackup you can do a 1:1 copy of a DVD-video.

Installation

Download dvdbackup version 0.1 - you will also need libdvdread version 0.9.3 or later.

Compile dvdbackup.c in the src dir like this gcc -o dvdbackup
-I/my/prefix/to/libdvdread/include -L/my/prefix/to/libdvdread/lib
-ldvdread dvdbackup.c

NOTE: The "" indicates that its one line - i.e. remove the "" from the command
line

Usage:

If your backup directory is /my/dvd/backup/dir/ specified with the "-o" flag. Then dvdbackup will create a DVD-Video structure under /my/dvd/backup/dir/TITLE_NAME/VIDEO_TS.

Since the title is "uniq" you can use the same dir for all your DVD backups. If it happens to have a generic title dvdbackup will exit with a return value of 2. And you will need to specify a title name with the -n switch.

dvdbackup will always mimic the original DVD-Video structure. Hence if you e.g. use the -M (mirror) you will get an exact duplicate of the original. This means that every file will be have the same size as the original one. Like wise goes also for the -F and the -T switch.

However the -t and (-t -s/-e) switch is a bit different the titles sectors will be written to the original file but not at the same offset as the original one since they may be gaps in the cell structure that we dont fill.

To backup the whole DVD

dvdbackup -M -i/dev/dvd -o/my/dvd/backup/dir/

This action creates a valid DVD-Video structure that can be burned to a DVD-/+R(W) with help of mkisofs version 1.11a27 or later

To backup the main feature of the DVD

dvdbackup -F -i/dev/dvd -o/my/dvd/backup/dir/

This action creates a valid DVD-Video structure of the feature title set
dvdbackup defaults to get the 16:9 version of the main feature if a 4:3 is also present on the DVD. To get the 4:3 version use -a 0.

dvdbackup makes it best to make a inteligent guess what is the main feature of the DVD - in case it fails please send a bug report.

To backup a title set

dvdbackup -T 2 -i/dev/dvd -o/my/dvd/backup/dir/

where "-T 2" specifies that you want to backup title set 2 i.e. all VTS_02_X.XXX files.

This action creates a valid DVD-Video structure of the specified title set

To backup a title

dvdbackup -t 1 -i/dev/dvd -o/my/dvd/backup/dir

This action backups all cells that forms the specified title. Note that there can be sector gaps in between one cell and an other. dvdbackup will backup all sectors that belongs to the title but will skip sectors that arent a part of the title.

To backup a specific chapter or chapters from a title

dvdbackup -t 1 -s 20 -e 25 -i/dev/dvd -o/my/dvd/backup/dir

This action will backup chapter 20 to 25 in title 1, as with the backup of a title there can be sector gaps between one chapter (cell) and on other.dvdbackup will backup all sectors that belongs to the title 1 chapter 20 to 25 but will skip sectors that arent a part of the title 1 chapter 20 to 25.

To backup a single chapter e.g. chapter 20 do -s 20 -e 20
To backup from chapter 20 to the end chapter use only -s 20
To backup to chapter 20 from the first chapter use only -e 20

You can skip the -t switch and let the program guess the title although its not recomened.

If you specify a chapter that his higher than the last chapter of the title dvdbackup will turncate to the highest chapter of the title.

Return values

0 on success
1 on usage error
2 on title name error
-1 on failur

Todo - i.e. whats on the agenda

Make the main feature guessing algoritm better. Not that it doesnt do its job, but its implementation its that great. I would also like to preserve more information about the main feature since that would let me preform better implementations in other functions that depends on the titles_info_t and title_set_info_t strcutures.
Make it possible to extract cells in a title not just chapters (very easy so it will definitly be in the next version).

Make a split mirror (-S) option that divides a DVD-9 to two valid DVD-5 video structures. This is not a trivial hack and its my main goal the next month or so. It involves writing ifoedit and vobedit libraries in order to be able to manipulate both the IFO structures and the VOB files. Out of this will most probably also come tscreate and vtscreate which will enable you to make a very simple DVD-Video from MPEG-1/2 source.

kavi2dvd is a Kommander script takes an AVI file, converts it to mpeg2 with ac3 audio and generates an .iso image ready for burning as its ouput.

Although there are plenty of scripts out there for conversion of video and authoring, this one is designed to require as little user input as possible. Choose an input .avi, select the destination folder, give the project a name and choose NTSC or PAL.

It then automates the full process of creating a dvd-video compatible image for playback on a stand-alone dvd player.
