- vdrsubrip
uses:
- dependencies
- ProjectX to extract subtitles (urpmi projectx)
- BDSup2Sub
(doom9)
(digital-digest)
to convert to images
- svn --username anonymous co http://javaforge.com/svn/bdsup2sub/BDSup2Sub/ BDSup2Sub
- ImageMagick to improve images
- gocr for OCR
- usage:
- edit vdrsubrip:
- PROJX='/usr/share/java/ProjectX.jar'
- BDSUP2SUB='~/src/BDSup2Sub/BDSup2Sub.jar'

- KSubtitleRipper (gui)
- subtitleripper
(uses: transcode, gocr)
- compilation
- urpmi libnetpbm-devel libpng-devel
- compilation
- rippers:
- wget ...
- vobsub.c:
- rename getline to getlinia (or anything else)

- 24fps -> 25 fps:
- subs -i -a 24/25 subtitle_file.sub
- time from file1 and text from file2:
- subs -z subtitle_file1.sub subtitle_file2.sub
- compensate the display time in 3 seconds:
- MPEG4IP
- Using MJPEG-tools
- TSDuck
- TSDuck is also a large library to manipulate MPEG transport streams. C++, Java and Python developers can use bindings in their languages.
- Using mencoder (mplayer)

tcextract):

manipulation tools for Linux
- DVD -> /home/user/rip/vob
- tccat -i /home/user/rip/vob | tcextract -x ps1 -t vob -a 0x22 > subs-en
- other languages:
- to determine the sid for the preferred subtitles:
- mplayer -dvd-device /space/st-tng/disc1/ -dvd 1 -vo null -ao null -frames 0 -v 2>&1 | grep sid
- if you want language with sid 7, then add it to
0x20:
- tccat -i /home/user/rip/vob | tcextract -x ps1 -t vob -a 0x27 > subs-it
- to determine the sid for the preferred subtitles:
- convert them to images:
- subtitle2pgm -o english -c 255,0,255,255 < subs-en
- OCR:
- pgm2txt english
- create srt file:

- tune
buffers: buffer_size, fifo_size
- e.g.: if receiving buffer_size is
65536 (ffmpeg default, or specified
with buffer_size 65536)
- [udp @ 0x7f548c00e8c0] end receive buffer size reported is 131072
- NALs larger than 65536*2=131072 will be truncated, and rtp packets from this point will be dropped, and kernel will mark them as dropped (it can be seen by running: dropwatch -l kas)
- maximum value for buffer_size
depends on Linux
kernel network parameter:
- check that net.core.rmem_max is, at least, 212992 (default)
- ffmpeg -buffer_size=212992
- this will open an udp buffer of 212992*2=425984 and NALs could have up to 425984 bytes (416kB)
