Meng Copy File DAT VCD Dalam Linux. Sebuah Tulisan Sederhana


Diantara kita semua, menonton filem dari media VCD masih sering kita dapati. Penyebabnya antara lain, media distribusi filem VCD masih banyak dijumpai di rental persewaan filem.


Seringkali, kebanyakan dari kita, lebih menyukai untuk meng-copy terlebih dahulu file .DAT atau .dat yang ada di keping VCD kita, kemudian menontontonnya dengan media player. Ada yang bilang, menonton filem langsung dari keping VCD/DVD kurang nyaman, karena ada bunyi “kretek-kretek-kretek” dari optical drive DVD/CDROM.


Di platform Windows, meng-copy file .dat dari kepingVCD sangat mudah, tinggal copy-paste dari keping VCD yang ada di direktori /mpegav/avseq01.dat; avseq02.dat dan seterusnya.


Namun apa yang terjadi di Linux? Saat saya mencoba copy-paste file .dat dari keping VCD, yang terjadi adalah error! Ternyata file dat dibaca semagai image yang hanya bisa di baca secara langsung dari pemutar media Mplayer.


Apakah memang tidak bisa? Ya! Di desktop Linux, kita tidak bisa melakukan copy-paste file dat pada keping VCD! Cara satu-satunya adalah dengan melakukan ripping!


Dan salah satu aplikasi ripping VCD yang terpopuler adalah vcdimager. Vcdimager sendiri merupakan kumpulan tool untuk melakukan ripping VCD. Karena merupakan aplikasi popular, vcdimager sudah ada di repo onlie berbagai distribusi mayor, menginstalasinya sangat mudah.


Cara melakukan ripping VCD dengan vcdimager sang mudah, yaitu :

Pertama, masukan keping VCD.

Dan kedua, jalankan perintah ripping melalui terminal :

$ vcdxrip


Proses ripping VCD berdurasi satu jam yang saya lakukan, sangat singkat. Hanya berkisar satu menitan. Hasil ripping akan langsung diletakan di Home, dengan nama avseq01.mpg, avseq02.mpg, dan seterusnya. Ada juga file-file pendukung yang dihasilkan, kita bisa menghapus semuanya, karena tidak di butuhkan. Sangat mudah sekali !


Begitulah ! Selamat ber-Linux !

Q4OS 4.6 "Gemini" Review: A Real Hidden Gem

Distro hopping is a fun adventure. It's a pure joy you can only find in GNU/Linux world. It's a nature you want to escape from what I call 'comfort ecosystem'. You need to play, trying something new even for a few little differences. For a long time I've been using Ubuntu family as my daily driver. The main reason is probably just same as any other Ubuntu user: it's reliable. You can't go wrong with Ubuntu. It works almost in any device, even for the newest one. It is the ultimate Linux distro you can rely on. However, sometimes, you will feel bored. The temptation to flirt with other new distro is unbearable. There are a lot of hot new Linux distros waiting to try.  A Real Hidden Gem I've known this distro for a quite long time. At first, it offered Trinity Desktop as the main desktop, which brings me the sweet memories about KDE3. It is simply fast, stable, almost without any issue, and it is based on Debian. I install it on my old machine and I love t

How To Install Mac OS X Lion Theme On Lubuntu / LXDE

Lubuntu 12.04 with Mac OS X Lion Theme, xcompmgr & cairo-dock [click to enlarge] Mac OS X is the special one in the Desktop market. So many people admire it because of its beauty, safety (yes, it is an UNIX) and its profesional image as “an OS for profesional modern art designer”. Yeah, Mac OS X has beautiful look and I do like its look-n-feel. And so, there are so many theme patcher to make our Microsoft Windows or Linux OS become Mac OS X in the appearance. In Linux Desktop, there are some project specialized in designing theme transformation pack to make our Linux desktop to be looked like Mac OS X. The most popular project probably is Mac4Lin. But, all of those projects was designed only for GNOME or sometimes support XFCE and how about LXDE? Our Star in the current lightweight Linux desktop? (Yes, LXDE is the most light-but-complete Linux desktop for now). Until now, there is no project that officially support LXDE. Basically, LXDE uses gtk (now still stay w

Howto Connect To Windows Share Network (Connect To Server) Easily in PCManFM

In Nautilus 3.4, Nemo, or Caja, there is a very useful menu called "Connect to Server". This menu allow us to connect to a Windows Share network via Samba. If you are using another desktop environment such as LXDE, there aren't such menu, and we need to install third party tool called Gigolo . But apparently, PCManFM (the default file manager of LXDE) already has such function. We could connect to a Windows Share network in PCManFM easily. Here are the simple steps : 1. Open PCManFM and go to adress bar, and type this command : smb://username@server/folder example : smb://staff@192.168.1.69/document then press Enter 2. Once you will be asked to input the Windows Share Network password (if exists), select Remember Forever option. 3. You are connected to Windows Share Network ;)
