For all user of the blue-pill with linux
I made a very early alpha script 0.5H blue-pill witch do run as expected ...
1.) you need a running at daemon and the command dd and a few others (ps,kill,isoinfo)
http://luemmels-dvd-ripper.googlecode.co...s-0.5H.tar
The windows part needs longer ... but it comes ...
But I need help for scripting ...

Hello users :-)
The blue bill 0.5H for windows and linux is allmost finished ....
I need some Beta-Testers ....
Who is willing to test it ? Expect it on weekend ... but not puplic ...
Compared to the old release 0.4G it has a few enhancements
* All Settings are stored inside a configuration file
* Confirmend and default ripping
* Progress bar
* Hide script until ripp is finished ...
Ok ... Is anyone out there who whould like to beta-test ?
From the red-pill side I have no feedback so I guess it works ....

Mhm ... I'm a little bit disappointet and upset !!
There are allmost 600 Downloads for the blue-pill and only one person
is willing test the new release for windows ?
and by the way there are 12 Downloads for the alpha blue 0.5H ....
no feedback .....
There are at least over 30 Downloads of the new red-pill 0.5Ha ....
no feedback .....
How should I develop a script wihtout any feedback ?
I do not command you to give feedback ... but from my point of view
I do talk to wall ...

Would it be possible that when you get to the point where it asks "where would you like the rip to be saved" that all the predefined "video" source folders in XBMC can be offered up as an option instead of having to type in the location every time?

Allready done ... If you rip in default mode it stores the rip inside
the directory witch is stored inside the configuration ....
If you rip in confirmend mode ... you must set the directory over a file-dialog.

Hans,
Is that just the linux version? (I'm using windows).
The dvd-blue was lastu updated on Jun 22 according to your page.
Lets say I have 3 video sources defined in XBMC.
TV Shows
Movies
Videos
It would be nice if your script asked "which source would you like to save the rip to" and you could just click the XBMC source where you want the file saved.
Here is what I did to your script to achieve the result I'm talking about.
As you can see I manually added my video sources to the dvd-blue script. It would be nice if the script could query XBMC and add the video shares automatically.
Code:
# Ask for Directory
dialog = xbmcgui.Dialog()
choice = dialog.select("Where Should The Video Be Saved?" , [ "Movies", "Videos", "TV Shows", "Choose Directory" ])
if (choice == 0):
DVD_dir = "Z:\\Movies"
if (choice == 1):
DVD_dir = "Z:\\Videos"
if (choice == 2):
DVD_dir = "Z:\\TV Shows"
if (choice == 3):
kb = xbmc.Keyboard('default', 'heading', True)
kb.setDefault(dvd_dir)
kb.setHeading(__language__(32002))
kb.setHiddenInput(False)
kb.doModal()
if (kb.isConfirmed()):
DVD_dir = kb.getText()
else:
return(1)

Sorry by now in the release 0.5H is one default directory written inside
the configuration file.
If you chose to rip in confirmed mode you can chose any directory you wish ...

I was playing around with the script some more and noticed something.
When I execute the script and write to a hard drive on the PC running the script it works fine. If I try to write to a mapped network drive it doesn't work. It executes the command but nothing is ever written to the mapped network drive.
If I comment out this line (where you add the At and time function to the command string)
# command = 'at ' + str(hh) + ':' + str(mm) + ' %WINDIR%\\SYSTEM32\\' + command
It will write to the network drive.
Any thoughts as to why that happens?
Hello to windows users of blue-pill ,-)
I have created the batch-files for windows release 0.5h.
By now I need to know that the scripts are working
1.) Download the test-script
http://luemmels-dvd-ripper.googlecode.co...ws-05h.zip
3.) Unpack the files to c:\test-script
2.) open a terminal
3.) mkdir %windir%\dvdripper
4.)
open testblue.cmd and replace d:\dvdrip with your own rip-place
open testvol.cmd and replace the F: with the drive-Letter of your dvd.
5.) Inside the directory are 2 files to test
6.) Insert a dvd and look a few secounds of the movie
7.) execute testvol.cmd -> It should resturn the name of the dvd
execute testblue.cmd -> It should start the ripp process with dd
and write a few files inside %windir%
I would like to hear .. that the scripts do work with
- windows xp ?
- vista `?
and may windows 7 ?
On a german windows xp with sp3 they run well ....
Feedback would be nice..
Without confirmation I do not release 0.5H for windows.
I had one single feedback ....
That my script is not running on a svn build for linux ...
Is that true ?
Could this be confirmed ?
Hans
I got file not found on the blue-pill link.
Fiasco Wrote:I got file not found on the blue-pill link.
Thats , correct
After 39 Downloads and no feedback I decidet to delete the file ...
If I ask for Feedback (this means any kind ... good or bad) and nothing cames back to me, the script must be useless or not working.
This is not the way the spirit of Open-Source is working.
I do not command to give feedback but a single email or a little
posting inside the forum would be enough...
