[Feature] Add "extract" feature #59

Closed shacha086 closed 2 years ago

shacha086 commented 2 years ago

I want to build a server to rip my blu-ray iso(s) which is headless and have no cd drive. And for some reason I can't use "mount" command to mount iso, and I found a lot of archive software but they all broke on my iso. Can you add a extract feature that users can get files directly?

If your drive can correctly read your bluray, and your bluray has a supported format, mount should work. Note that commercial blurays have copy protection and it that case it'll obviously not work.

In any case, dvdisaster is working at the iso level and doesn't know or care about actually reading the files. The job of the program is augmenting the iso images with ECC data to protect them against corruption. Extracting or "ripping" is completely out of the scope of the program, and will unfortunately never be implemented because, this doesn't make sense regarding the purpose of the program.
