+Here is a short guide for making a quick "backup" of
+your shiny new multi-angle DVD.
+NOTE: Please make sure, the DVD explicitly allows you to make a backup copy.
+
+(0) insert your DVD;-)
+(1) switch to a new empty directory $MY_PATH/DVD/ on your hard drive.
+(2) if /dev/dvd is a link to your block device, use tccat's new -P option
+
+ tccat -i /dev/dvd -P 1 | split -b 1024m - VTS_01_
+
+ This will result in a couple of files named
+
+ VTS_01_aa, VTS_01_ab, ...
+
+ (once LFS is fully working, a single file should be sufficient (???),
+ i.e., "tccat -i /dev/dvd -P 1 > VTS_01_1.VOB").
+
+(3) copy the IFO files by hand. For this, you will need to mount the DVD:
+
+ mount /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd
+ cp /mnt/dvd/VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO .
+
+ You also need the title IFO file. In this case
+ cp /mnt/dvd/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_0.IFO .
+
+ umount /mnt/dvd
+
+(4) rename the chunks, first file is VTS_01_1.VOB, not VTS_01_0.VOB. The
+ latter contains still pictures and the like (?).
+
+ mv VTS_01_aa VTS_01_1.VOB
+ mv VTS_01_ab VTS_01_2.VOB
+ ...
+
+(5) repeat step (2-4) for other titles, you wish to keep. In most cases,
+ the main title will do. Note that the Example after you're done:
+
+ $>ls -l .
+ total 5529180
+ -r--r--r-- 1 bgates users 26624 Jan 13 10:29 VIDEO_TS.IFO
+ -r--r--r-- 1 bgates users 124928 Jan 13 10:29 VTS_01_0.IFO
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:05 VTS_01_1.VOB
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:06 VTS_01_2.VOB
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:08 VTS_01_3.VOB
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:10 VTS_01_4.VOB
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 1073741824 Jan 13 18:12 VTS_01_5.VOB
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 bgates users 287461376 Jan 13 18:12 VTS_01_6.VOB
+
+(6) test your copy, you need to provide an absolute path to
+ the backup directory:
+
+ tcprobe -i $MY_PATH/DVD -T 1
+ tccat -i $MY_PATH/DVD -T 1,C,A | [mplayer|xine|...] -
+
+ and optionally check other titles, chapters (C) or even viewing angles (A).
+
+(7) Please note this backup copy is suitable for navigation with import
+ module "-x dvd". If you prefer the cluster mode, you need to
+ apply my cluster mini guide to this copy of your DVD or the DVD in your
+ drive. The program stream contains full navigation and angle information.
+ These information are not preserved using the -T option with tccat.
+
+ -----
+
+ Hint: It does not make sense to apply the procedure to all titles
+ found with tcprobe, since a lot of titles share VTS* files and IFO files.
