dvd backup with command line

Post by occi23 »

hi,

i want to automate backup of my dvd with the makemkv cli. all the dvd are saved to the hard disc in serveral folders. i want to backup all titles.

i tried the following command line (i'm using a 32-bit windows xp):

Code: Select all

makemkvcon mkv file:"E:\folder\VIDEO_TS.IFO" 1 "e:\"
001014:000000:0000 MakeMKV v1.4.11 beta win(x86-release) started
Current action: Scanning CD-ROM devices
003006:000000:0000 Opening files on harddrive at E:\folder\VIDEO_TS.IFO
Current action: Pre-calculating data
Current action: Processing title sets
005010:000000:0000 Failed to open disc
is it possible to backup a dvd from hard disc with makemkvcon?

Ifo files should be in VIDEO_TS folder. If this is true, and you have files in "E:\folder\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS.IFO" command line would be

Code: Select all

makemkvcon mkv file:E:\folder 1 "e:\"

ok, this works fine now.

is it possible to mux all video_ts.ifo of all sub foldern to mkv?

for example: there is a folder e:\folder with serveral sub folder
e:\folder\01
e:\folder\02
e:\folder\03

in every sub folder is a video_ts.ifo.

can i run the command line for all the video_ts.ifo in all sub folders and write the output in the same folder like the video_ts.ifo?
