A'rpi, you're the man! I really hate that though, when i have an app
already on my system that i never knew about! yeah, that *seems* to
actually provide everything i would want right now... i guess theres just
no other information possible though! It's still presumably a case of
looping the application through possible ifo numbers until an error is
reached, not too nice, but nevermind!
It would still be nice to access this information with a default
installation of mplayer and nothing else, but libdvdread is certainly a
much more attractive prospect that vstrip.
I'm still not aware of a decent ripping GUI for linux, maybe i'll actually
do something serious abuot this, maybe not...
brilliant, i owe you one (hmm, maybe i should just pay you back by not
posting to here :))
