I've ripped my DVD collection into ISO files.

I'm looking for a way to encode the files so that:


  • all languages and sound track formats are maintained
  • all subtitles are maintained
  • encoded into a format so that it can be played using xbmc and andoid media players
  • quality is more important (both for audio and video) than high level of compression
  • encoding must be done using the command line (no GUI SW), presumably using mencoder or similar software which is easily available under Gentoo

BTW:

I've tried the following:

Code:
base=$(basename $iso .iso)

mencoder dvd://1/"$iso" -ovc x264 x264encopts=threads=auto:crf=20:subq=7:partitions=all:8x8dct:me=umh:frameref=5:bframes=3:b_pyramid:weight_b  -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=256 -alang no,sv,en,dk,es,fr,ge  -slang no,sv,dk,en,es,fr,ge -vobsubout "$base" -o "${base}.avi"


But I don't seem to get the audio subtitles in such a manner that they can be shown on xbmc. Using mkv for as the final container format might help, but I don't know how to generate it using the cli tools.

Thank you, but I can't figure out how to run mkvmerge to achieve what I've described above. Is there a wiki somewhere?

Sorry, can't answer that, you have to get creative to combine decoding, encoding and muxing. I assume you need CLI because there is a number of files to process. There is another option. Avidemux can do CLI batch processing. I see you want to use AVC, for this I suggest you use 2.6 which is not in portage yet, grab it from GIT repo.

I managed to create a mkv file which contained everything I wanted and was playable using xbmc. However, the audio, video, and subtitles were all out of sync :( I even tried to use the copy option to -oac -ovc but still all files were out of sync in the resulting mkv file. I also tried the -vf harddup option without any luck.
