Convert SVCD to DVD
Authored by: wallybear on Feb 21, '05 01:29:00PM

1) The ffmpeg version of vcdxrip does not accept the -c parameters
2) there is no /dev/cdrom device

you can accomplish the same task with the following syntax:

vcdxrip -b /dev/disk2

where "disk2" is the mount point of your optical unit (disk2 in my case as I have two hard drives, disk0 and disk1). You can find the mount point using this command from Terminal (insert a CDor DVD first):

$ mount
/dev/disk0s3 on /Volumes/swap 1 (local)
/dev/disk0s5 on /Volumes/Backup (local, journaled)
/dev/disk1s10 on /Volumes/Macintosh HD (local, journaled)
/dev/disk2s1 on /Volumes/MYCD (local)

In this case /dev/disk2s1 is the optical reader. Remove the "s1" suffix and you'll get the device (/dev/disk2) to be used with vcdxrip.

That's all
