Description
The movie-rip-epg.data program is a convenience program that can gather information about a movie from
VDR's epg.data file. The program gathers its information from the epg.data file that is produced by VDR
when it records a program for you, hence the name of the program.
The program reads its information from standard input, so you should redirect the program's input from
the epg.data file that VDR produced when it recorded your movie.
The program writes its gathered information to standard output, so you should redirect the program's
output into a file called my_movie.info (where my_movie.mpg is the file that was generated by VDR).
Example
The command line format that I use most often is:
movie-rip-epg.data-tauto<epg.data>movie.infoName
movie-rip-epg.data - Gathers information from VDR's epg.data file
Options
The following options are available:
-ttitle_mode
Sets the title mode. With this option, you can determine which part of the epg.data file will
become the title that is used in the DVD menu that will be created by movie-title.
Possible values are:
title This will simply use the "T" line in the file.
short This will simply use the "S" line in the file.
squote This will use the quoted part of the "S" line.
auto This will try to autodetect what to use.
The title setting is the default if you don't specify -t.
-llanguage
Sets the language of the title headings that are produced in the .info file. The default is
English, which will use the headings Title, Shortdescription and Synopsis.
You may either specify english, french or dutch or specify your language's words for title, shortdescription and synopis (or longdescription), separated by pipe signs (|).
For example: ...-l"Title|Shortdescription|Synopsis"... could be used instead of english.
