NAME
movie-rip-epg.data - Gathers information from VDR’s epg.data file
SYNOPSIS
movie-rip-epg.data [-t title_mode] [-l language] < /some/where/epg.data
> my_movie.info
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).
OPTIONS
The following options are available:
-t title_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.
-l language
Sets the language of the title headings that are produced in the
.info file. The default is English, which will use the headings
Title, Short description and Synopsis.
You may either specify english, french or dutch or specify your
language’s words for title, short description and synopis (or
long description), separated by pipe signs (|).
For example: ... -l "Title|Short description|Synopsis" ... could
be used instead of english.
EXAMPLE
The command line format that I use most often is:
movie-rip-epg.data -t auto < epg.data > movie.info
