vobcopy 1.1.0

Sunday, Jan 13, 2008

This release fixes the debian bug #448319 which got retitled CVE-2007-5718. Also, I cleaned up vobcopy to compile and run on MacOSX (10.5 at least). Spaces in filenames are now better handled ( I hope). Take a look: vobcopy-1.1.0.

vobcopy 1.0.2

Sunday, Jun 24, 2007

Small fixes, nothing major. A small segfault with the logging code got fixed and some logging beautification. Also some experimental code to skip broken blocks on the dvd. Go get it, vobcopy-1.0.2.

vobcopy 1.0.1

Monday, Nov 13, 2006

Small fixes, nothing major. This release isn't perfect (I know of a bug but it should be _very_ very rare since it's there a long time and nobody mailed for that) but I just want to get it out the door :) vobcopy-1.0.1.

vobcopy 1.0.0!!

Sunday, Apr 2, 2006

Okay, after a really long time and only few development I think this code is ready to enter maintainance mode and therefore I call it 1.0.0! It does what I wanted that code to do - but in the process it got *really* ugly. So I'm going to re-write lots of the code and that will be vobcopy2 in a sense. In 1.0.0 is a little code cleanup, some bugfixes but if I recall nothing major. vobcopy-1.0.0.

vobcopy 0.5.15 and 0.5.16

Wednesday, Jan 4, 2006

Well, actually there was some vobcopy development the last year. But very few and not _that_ interesting. But since I'm lazy it never made the news and wasn't even "officially" released. So, here come 2 versions at once:vobcopy-0.5.15 aaand vobcopy-0.5.16.

vobcopy 0.5.14

Thursday, Nov 18, 2004

This should be it: vobcopy-0.5.14.
There has been some code to get vobcopy to work on Free-, Net- and OpenBSD and on MacOSX (besides fink)! Also a minor bugfix and some other code cleanup.

vobcopy 0.5.13

Friday, March 26, 2004

This should be it: vobcopy-0.5.13.
The -m and -O functions should now work correctly. Also should now hand-mounted dvd devices be found by vobcopy (i.e. which are not listed in fstab). Sorry and thanks to those who helped find this bug.

vobcopy bug FOUND (I think)

Thursday, March 25, 2004

I (think I) found the bug. It has been there since 0.5.7 as it seems... I thought the max filesize of vobs was 1GB and I used this as a fix-value within the program. But now a ls -l on some dvds showed that this size varies from dvd to dvd and even within a dvd...
A new release will be out probably around friday night. Sorry and thanks to those who helped find this bug.

STILL problems with vobcopy-0.5.12

Wednesday, March 17, 2004

Damn, damn damn, there is still a problem in the -m function that causes crc errors with mplayer in a52 dec. This bug is hard to trace though...Sorry...
Fall back to 0.5.9 if you need the -m function, this seems to be the last stable version with -m working.

bugs in vobcopy-0.5.10 (and before)

Tuesday, January 27, 2004

1) vobcopy -O vts_02_1.vob -o -
doesn't write to stdout but to the same files that it would write to without '-o -' option.

2) vobcopy -n 2 gives a different file than vobcopy -n 2 -o - > tmp.vob
this happens since also the progress meter gets written to the file...
These bugs will be addressed soon. Sorry!

Troubles with vobcopy-0.5.9

Monday, January 12, 2004

Happy new year!
But: in the 0.5.9 release of vobcopy is an error in the -O option which results in wrong content being copied. If you for instance call vobcopy -O vts_01_4, instead of vts_01_4.vob the content of vts_01_1.vob is being copied. I'm working on this bug but also thinking about extending and re-writing vobcopy so this might take a little longer. Thanks to Stewart Andreason.
