dvd::rip is a full featured DVD copy program written in Perl. It provides
an easy to use but feature-rich Gtk+ GUI to control
almost all aspects of the ripping and transcoding process. It uses the widely known video
processing swissknife
transcode
and many other Open Source tools. dvd::rip itself is licensed under
GPL / Perl Artistic License.
"And note: it's spelt dvd::rip,
and nothing else."

First release in 2009 - happy new year ;):
dvd::rip 0.98.10 [stable].
Refer to the
change log for details
of this release.
-
This version drops the warning about experimental transcode 1.1.x support,
since dvd::rip can be considered to work with all current transcode
releases at the same level of functionality. There may be still issues
with transcode 1.1.x under special circumstances, since the transcode
team improved and changed a lot under the hood. So don't hesitate to post
bug reports to the list if you hit any bugs.

Obviously many people use dvd::rip on smaller screens (widescreen
notebooks and stuff ;) but the rich GUI doesn't fit very well on them.
This release adds a "small screen size" option, which puts the notebook
tabs to the left and adds scrollbars, so every bit of the dvd::rip GUI
is reachable even on the smallest screen now ;)
