I completed a fair amount of updates and small refactoring to my dvd_rip.sh bash script program for ripping/backing up DVDs. Yes, its still written in bash (for now!), but runs pretty fast and has lots of error checking. Some updates from this release include:
Updated with a $mountpoint variable (works better with ubuntu systems that auto mount disks under /media/cdrom{0}.
Required packages checking function is more robust and lets you know which packages you are missing (if any) instead of just exiting.
Added version string (long time coming)
Improved help output
$PATH variable now includes /usr/local/bin in case required binaries live here
General code cleanup (removed 18 lines of code!)
Please feel free to download and give it a try. I have a couple other imrpovements coming soon when I get a chance to work on them. They should include:
Option to rip dvd as raw iso
Option to rip dvd as avi or mpg
