It is tiny because it has a subset of major DVD ripper options such as [[HandBrake]]. It uses [[libmpv]] to power everything, and is essentially a wrapper around ''mpv''.

-Usage: +
-  dvd_rip [path] [options] +
- +
-  -o, --output <filename>       Save to filename (default: dvd_track_##.mkv) +
- +
-Track selection: +
-  -t, --track <#>          Encode selected track (default: longest) +
-  -c, --chapter <#>[-#]         Encode chapter number or range (default: all) +
- +
-Language selection: +
-      --alang <language>        Select audio language, two character code (default: first audio track) +
-      --aid <#>                 Select audio track ID +
-      --slang <language> Select subtitles language, two character code (default: none) +
-      --sid <#>                 Select subtitles track ID +
- +
-Encoding options: +
- +
-  -v, --vcodec <x264|x265|vpx> Video codec (defaut: x265) +
-  -q, --crf <#> Video encoder CRF (default: use codec baseline) +
-  -a, --acodec <aac|opus> Audio codec (default: AAC) +
-  -d, --detelecine Detelecine video +
-  -e, --deinterlace Deinterlace video +
- +
-Defaults: +
- +
-By default, dvd_rip will encode source to H.264 video with AAC audio in an +
-MP4 container. If an output filename is given with a different extension, +
-it will use the default settings. for those instead. In each case, the default +
-presets are used as selected by the codecs as well. Note that mpv must already +
-be built with support for these codecs, or dvd_trip will quit. +
- +
-See the man page for more details. +
- +
-  .mkv - HEVC video, AAC audio +
-  .mp4 - H.264 video, AAC audio +
-  .webm - VPX9 video, Opus audio +
- +
-Other: +
-  -h, --help                    Show this help text and exit +
-      --version                 Show version info and exit +
- +
-DVD path can be a device name, a single file, or directory (default: /dev/sr0) +
- +
-dvd_trip reads a configuration file from ~/.config/dvd_rip/mpv.conf +
- +
-See mpv man page for syntax and dvd_rip man page for examples. +

-In x265, changing the encoder speed is relative to filesize, not quality. In these presets, however, both CRF and encoding speed are adjusted for each level.

-==== VPX Encoding ====+==== x265 Encoding ====
  
-The WebM project recommends doing a two-pass encode as the default options for creating video. I prefer doing a one-pass with a good CRF instead, and that is what's used here.+CRF for x265 ranges from 0 to 51, with the default being 28.
  
-VPX doesn't have a 'CRF' in the same sense that x264 and x265 do. Instead, you can set minimum and maximum quality scale levels. The lowest being 0, and the highest 63 (rc_min_quantizer and rc_max_quantizer). +In x265, changing the encoder speed is relative to filesize, not quality. In these presets, however, both CRF and encoding speed are adjusted for each level.
- +
-The values cannot be set to each other in an attempt to "force" a specific quality level. The library requires that there be a minimium difference of 8 between the two values. +
- +
-In addition to setting the ranges, the rate control method is set to 'quality'. The other options being VBR, CBR, and constrained quality. +
- +
-The default settings using libvpx as a one-pass, with no quality scales set is generally low-quality, with lots of blockiness, and so is used for the "low" preset. Depending on your source, you may or may not get a good encode out of it, but setting it to defaults means you could get anything. The other presets set a minimum quality level. +
- +
-Using vpxenc, here is what the settings would look like for the low preset:+
  
-<code> 
-vpxenc --end-usage=q --passes=1 --webm -o vpxenc.webm source.y4m 
-</code>
