I know about the DVD rip module and it's nice for what it does :)
Obviously what I'm describing below isn't for everyone. I'm after
more of a DVD archive or DVD Jukebox like setup and while ripping
DVDs is nice it doesn't keep all the functionality that I desire.
I'm looking to see if anyone has put together a solution that imports
(not rips) full DVDs into MythVideo. By import I mean the entire DVD
to include all sound tracks, sub titles, menus, and video. I think
I've seen some scripts that do this go by on the list but don't see
them in the archives.
My vision of a functional DVD Import would be:
1) Copies the entire contents of the DVD (video, menus, all sound
tracks, extras, and all subtitles) to the HDD
2) Uses the imdb.pl or other means to identify the disc, get the
cover art, and insert it into the MythVideo database
3) Imported discs are immediately playable by browsing with MythVideo
The import option might be found by navigating from MythTV Main
Screen -> DVD -> DVD Import.
