MediaSlayer - CD and DVD HD ripping tool (1 Viewer)

Perhaps you can help me..

Hey, I'm looking to rip blu-rays, I have a batch file system which works-

I also use mencoder to compress the video portion, but my goal with my system is to keep everything as high quality as possible (FLAC and very HQ video).

is there any way that my system could be implemented into yours?


Just a brief rundown of how mine works:

1) with anydvd running in the background, eac3to copies the chapters.txt listing, the pure video stream into MKV, and the pure audio into FLAC. a text file with the movie title (which it prompts the user for) is also saved.
2) these files are copied into a Movie1 folder, the next time I run my batch file it sees that Movie1 has files in it and copies the next bluray disc to Movies2 folder
2.5) blu-ray ejected
3) mencoder.exe compresses the video MKV to somewhere between CRF 18 and 22 (depending on my liking)
4) mkvmerge combines the compressed video and FLAC audio and saves it into my movies database using the movie name saved in the text file earlier.

Using B3W, Using Skin file provided a couple pages back, and still no rip. Errors on Progress Bar still.

Logs attached.

will look into wiki to see what I can See.

I just installed the Plugin and it's not running. I got the same problem like mlburgoon. I can press the rip button, but nothing happens, neither in b3w nor in maya. Anyway, if the rip would start and it is just not showing right it would be no problem since the data should be ripped normally, but i cannot find any ripped data on my system so the issue has to be something else.

Though it is a really good Plugin, comes in very handy.

Suggestion...

First of all i would like to say that this is a perfect plugin !

I have to questions

1. When using imdb is it possible to make it create the folder like the imdb name ?
That way you could make the ripper ripping to moving pictures folder, and then moving pictures could grab automaticly from the gui ?

2. Is it possible to make this plugin availible for SVN users

 

[mlburgoon]

WOW!!! I was just going to ask the exact same thing as your #1!!! When I get the movie name from IMDB, I would like that to be the name of the folder and movie. For Example, I am ripping "the Fog", the imdb lookup pulls back several movies including "The Fog (1980)", and "The Fog (2004)". When I select the correct movie for the year I have, I would like that to be both the folder name, and the name of the .iso file. That would make Moving Pictures pull up the correct movie WITHIN the gui almost everytime. No more exiting the GUI to fiddle with movies.

Any news on getting this thing working with 1.0 RC1?

This is on a FULLY clean install. B3W with the patched .xml from a copule pages back.

If you enable disk free space from config and start this plugin do you see that percentage bar? If not then skin file is not right and plugin will not work.

This definition must be in both progress controls: <label>#percentage</label>

 

[mlburgoon]

Well, I am using the skin file provided from a couple pages back. So I guess it is not right then?

attached is my skin file for b3w. It has that label info in it.

I also added that label to the Black Glass skin file, and it still does not work either.

I could not find that info in the wiki anywhere, either.

I have deleted cache and tried again, still no go.

I don't know why it is not working...

screen shot of what I see with "show disk space" enabled:

It's the same on my system. The first thing I wonder about is that in all xm files delivered with the plugin there isn't that #percentage label written into. So if that really is the issue it won't work if you just install. Maybe it got forgotten.
I am using Maya skin, changed everything as above and it doesn't work. My system is MP 1.1.0.0 RC1, maybe it's that?

EDIT: Here is the issue out of the log file:

OnMessage exceptionystem.MissingMethodException: Methode nicht gefunden: "Void MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIProgressControl.set_Percentage(Int32)".
bei MediaSlayer.MediaSlayerGUI.OnButtonRip()

Try this version with RC1 and remember changed skin file. Maybe there was some changes needed for RC1 but can't recall any - too much ongoing at the same time.

NOTE: you have to configure plugin again as now this is using own xml for settings. Also CD ripping now creates folder thumbs automatically.
