Cannot rip a DVD to my NAS share using k3b #1247

Open WetGeek opened 10 months ago

WetGeek commented 10 months ago

Summary

I've used k3b in the past to rip dozens of movies to the Videos share on my NAS, but I just tried it on the Plasma desktop I've used before to do that, and it just results in an error about a missing file. I assume it's a dependency that wasn't provided, but I've tried installing it with no joy.

Steps to reproduce

On a Plasma device, that's fully updated, start k3b and try to rip a video DVD. I suspect it would fail even if the destination were a local folder, but I simply keep movies on the NAS share I mentioned.

Expected result

I expected the movie to be copied to my Videos share, where I could access it from my media machine that's connected to the TV.

Actual result

For context not a new issue: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/7435-ripping-dvd

@HarveyDevel had suggested I use MakeMKV a couple years ago when I last tried to rip some video DVDs with k3b, but I can't locate that in the repository now, either. In fact, I can no longer find anything that will rip video DVDs.

I had to install MakeMKV from Flathub and also run sudo modprobe sg so it'll detect your drive. There is a newer build of Handbrake in the unstable branch that was updated to allow some hardware transcoding. Still working with @ReillyBrogan on the Intel drivers part of it.

KDE added a patch that disables the ability to use transcode (since it is apparently unmaintained for many years now):

https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/k3b/-/commit/c65e9cfb04926c93cc5e112ec2e720dcc8161f5c

This patch should be a part of the k3b we have in the repo now, cf.: https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/k3b/-/commits/release/24.08?search=transcode

I took a look at the current k3b plugin settings, and that got me thinking that perhaps the better option is for Solus to rundep on ffmpeg and set up the necessary options by default in the k3b plugin settings...?

@WetGeek Can you still reproduce this?
