This describes how to convert a DVD to mkv using:

  • x264 for video
  • ac3 for audio
  • any subtitles

First write the video stream to the harddrive so the next steps will go faster. Also remember the aid and sid for audio and subtitles.

mplayer dvd://1 -v -dumpstream -dumpfile <title>.vob

Now extract audio from the stream. Just use AC3.

mplayer <title>.vob -aid <aid> -dumpaudio -dumpfile <title>.ac3

Now extract the subtitles from the stream.

mencoder <title>.vob -ovc raw -o /dev/null -nosound -sid <sid> -vobsubout <title>

Detect the amount to crop. Keep it running till it is stable for a while

mplayer <title>.vob -vf cropdetect

Run the first pass on the video

mencoder -v <title>.vob -vf <cropvalues> -ovc x264 -x264encopts subq=1:frameref=1:pass=1:bitrate=1000 -nosound -nosub -noautosub -of rawvideo -o <title>.264
