dvdxchap

This is the dvdxchap tool from OGMTools by Moritz Bunkus.

This program extracts chaper information from a DVD source and displays it in a form usable by tools like mkvmerge.

Usage

dvdxchap [-t TITLE] [-c START[-END]] [-v] [-V] [-h] DVD-SOURCE

where:

• -t/--title - Specify title number, defaulting to 1.
• -c/--chapter - Specify the chapter range (2-4). This adjusts all timecodes so that they start at 0.
• -v - Increase verbosity
• -V - Show version infomration
• -h - Show help
• DVD-SOURCE - Path to a DVD file system root.

Build and install

You need to have CMake and libdvdread installed. Run the following commands after cloning the repository:

cd where-project-is-cloned
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
make
make install

You can add C flags to the cmake invocation with an argument similar to -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE='-O2 -pipe -march=native -fomit-frame-pointer'.

You will then have dvdxchap in the build directory. You can use make install to install like normal on a Linux or GNU-convention system (like macOS).
