Creating great DVD :)

[gregoire.favre at gmail.com (Gregoire Favre)]

Hello,

the new release of http://sourceforge.net/projects/videotrans/ includes
a lots of fixes (Fixed a number of bugs and added new features for
creating DVD menus. DVD menus now have many more options. Also, the
program is now compatible with some versions of ImageMagick and mplayer
that act in different ways than other versions of those programs.)

AND is now able to import from VDR "info.vdr" for the creation of its
.info files !!!

For example, most of the time, I create my DVD in a dir full of mpeg2
files (and it's txt files which are just the info.vdr renamed) and run
this script :

#!/bin/bash

S=4470
A=/data/wav/Beethoven-Sonata_No_1_in_F_Minor_Op_2_No_1.wav

if [ -z "$1" ]; then
	DEST=/mnt/cooker/tmp/DVD
else
	DEST=$1
fi

if (( "`du -m -s -L -c *.mpg|tail -n 1|cut -f1`" <= "$S" )); then
	echo "Size OK"
else	
	echo "Too big"
	exit
fi

if [ -e $DEST ]; then
	echo $DEST already exists

	OPTIONS="remove keep change exit"
	select opt in $OPTIONS; do
		if [ "$opt" = "remove" ]; then
			rm -fr $DEST
			break
		elif [ "$opt" = "keep" ]; then
			break
		elif [ "$opt" = "change" ]; then
			new="$DEST"
			while [ -e $new ]; do
				echo $new exists
				echo Give new name
				read new
			done
			DEST=$new
			break
		elif [ "$opt" = "exit" ]; then
			exit
		else
			echo bad option
		fi
	done
fi

movie-make-title-simple -m pal -o title -n animated -a $A

TXT=`ls *.txt 2> /dev/null   |wc -w`
if [ ! $TXT -eq 0 ]; then
	for d in *.txt;do 
		#mv -i $d `basename $d .txt`.info
		movie-rip-epg.data -t auto -l french < $d > `basename $d .txt`.info
	done
fi

for f in *.info;do vi $f;done

nice -n 10 dvdauthor -o $DEST -x title.vob-dvdauthor-fr.xml

du -m -s -c -L $DEST

echo "Do we move the info files ?"

OPTIONS="move copy exit"
select opt in $OPTIONS; do
	if [ "$opt" = "move" ]; then
		mv -i *.info $DEST
		break
