[MPlayer-users] sig11 when copying from dvd

[Chris Phillips]

hi, i'm trying to work out the best way to cache a dvd to encode it later. 
When i just use mencoder to -oac copy -ovc copy it makes an avi file jsut 
fine, but i want to be able to encode the file in a number of pieces, 
using -ss and -endpos, but this doesn't work. if i try setting ss the file 
always fails (tried multiple sources etc..) with the libmpeg2 sig11 error. 
This seems to be down to the fact that there's no index for some reason 
(-ss in mplayer jumps straight to the end and quits).

why no index? it's a hell of a chore to copy it again using mencoder...

thanks
