[dvd::rip] dvdrip should not write to /tmp

[Michael Renner <michael.renner@xxxxxx>]

Moin,

I'm using dvd::rip since years with my old Pentium III notebook (it took one 
day to rip a dvd, but I am a patient man).
Now I bought a new notebook with a solid state disk instead of an 'real' hard 
disk drive.. Therefore, /tmp is a ramdisk now with only 50MB space.

But drv::dip is writing to /tmp somehow; I can see this at the console:

Executing command: execflow tcprobe -H 25 -i /home/renner/dvd/Pigor/vob/003/ 
&& echo EXECFLOW_OK

Fri Feb 13 11:29:24 2009        Start job 'Grab preview - title #3'
Fri Feb 13 11:29:24 2009        Executing command: mkdir -m 
0775 /tmp/dvdrip14120.snap; cd /tmp/dvdrip14120.snap; execflow tccat -i

&& execflow convert -size 
720x576 /tmp/dvdrip14120.snap/snapshot*.png 
/home/renner/dvd/Pigor/tmp/Pigor-003-preview-orig.jpg 
&& execflow convert -size 720x576 /tmp/dvdrip14120.snap/snapshot*.png 
gray:/home/renner/dvd/Pigor/tmp/Pigor-003-preview-orig.raw && 
rm -r /tmp/dvdrip14120.snap && echo EXECFLOW_OK

But /tmp/ is full in a little while.
I searched the perl code for 'tmp' and 'snap', and found a fragment in 
Title.pm.

But what is the best way to change this? just replacing
my $tmp_dir      = "/tmp/dvdrip$$.snap";
by
$HOME/dvd/$PROJECT/tmp/ (what is the right variable?)?

Thanks

PS: I'm using kubuntu at a dual core ADM 64, but I am willing to to give 
solaris a change, where /tmp is also in ram.
