transcode
I had this great movie (from Ron Fedkiw), which, unfortunately was encoded with the MPEG-4 Video High Speed Compressor (fourcc MPG4).
Because I wanted to change the codec, I tried to install transcode.
DVD movies with xine
Got my xine to play encrypted dvd’s on my home pc!
I had the xine and xine-dvdnav packages installed, but it refused to play CSS encrypted VOB-files. So I tried to install libdvdcss2. This library needed libdvdread2. However, I probably downloaded the wrong version, because when I tried to install that, it complained about me having a too old libc6 version.
I didn’t what to update that, so I tried something else… and I found the d4d plugin. Just ./configure; make; make install.
Yeah right…!
