4. Command line options |
4.1 dvdrip: main GUI program | [ Content ] [ Top ] |
Although dvd::rip is a GUI program, it has some command line options:
4.1.1 Synopsis |
Usage: dvdrip [-c] [-d level] [-p file] [-f function [-t title-nr]] [file]
dvdrip --version | -version | -v
-c open cluster control window
-d set debugging level
-f execute one of the following functions (needs filename)
transcode transcode the selected title
transcode_split transcode and split the selected title
-t title-nr to which the function above should apply
(Default: last selected title)
-p preferences filename (Default: ~/.dvdriprc)
A new file is created, if it doesn't exist.
4.1.2 Options |
| Option | Description |
| -c | Starts dvd::rip and opens the cluster control window only. The standard GUI doesn't appear. |
| -d | This is mainly for developers and sets the debugging level. Level 1 switches a few internal debugging messages on, Level 2 enables function/method call tracing, Level 3 adds actual parameters of function/method calls. |
| -f |
The -f option must be used together with a filename. The given function will be applied on the loaded project and dvd::rip exits afterwards. If you ommit the -t option, the last selected title will be used. The following functions can be executed this way:
Example: dvdrip -f transcode_split movie.rip |
| -t |
This option makes mostly sense in conjunction with -f. It selects the given title number of a project, on which a function should be applied. Example: dvdrip -f transcode -t 2 movie.rip |
| -p |
If you want to have multiple preferences (e.g. for multiple machines sharing the same home directory), you can pass an alternative name for dvd::rip's preferences file using the -p option. If the file doesn't exist, it will be created with the default values. Example: dvdrip -p ~/.dvdriprc-$(hostname)This will use a preferences file which has the name of the actual host appended. |
4.2 dvdrip-master: Cluster control daemon | [ Content ] [ Top ] |
4.2.1 Synopsis |
Usage: dvdrip-master [-w [-W port] ] [loglevel]
loglevel logs messages to stdout
1 - basic logging, no details
2 - log actual jobs
3 - log all executed commands also
-w start webserver service
-W port port for webserver (default: 8888)
4.2.2 Options |
The options -w and -W control the cluster control daemon's webinterface, which is described in its own chapter.
Additionally you can set a logging level, which defaults to 2. Level 1 only prints some very basic, but no progress information, level 2 report started and finished jobs, level 3 also reports the executed commands (which is very useful for debugging purposes). Higher levels activate tracing information.
