vcdxrip: Input Examples
3.1 Examples specifying input
=============================
Perhaps all you want to do is rip a CD onto your disk to modify it. If
the CD is in the default location for your OS, then this might work:
vcdxrip
It means the same thing as:
vcdxrip --cdrom-device
and using the short option:
vcdxrip -C
I have a combined CD-ROM and DVD drive called '/dev/dvd'. I have
another CD-ROM drive which goes under the name '/dev/cdrom', but I
generally prefer to use the DVD/CD-ROM drive for reading since it
doesn't seem to run as hot. Since that drive is not the "default"
('/dev/cdrom') on my GNU/Linux box, I have to give a location. So this
will work:
vcdxrip -C=/dev/dvd
Or even better, I'll let 'vcdxrip' figure out it's a CD-ROM device:
vcdxrip -i /dev/dvd
The equals sign before '/dev/dvd' is optional in either format.
Let's say you just used 'vcdimager' or 'vcdxbuild' it created output
to its "default" location (probably 'videocd.cue' and 'videocd.bin'. To
dump out this out:
vcdxrip --bin-file
But if you specified the output to go to say 'nausicaa.bin' and
'nausicaa.cue' you would have to specify that location like this:
vcdxrip -b nausicaa.bin
Or again not having to worry about what type of file you could use
the "intelligent" input option again as we did before:
vcdxrip -i nausicaa.bin
If I want the XML file that gets created to to "nausicaa.xml" rather
than "videocd.xml" then use this:
vcdxrip -i nausicaa.bin -o nausicaa.xml
