Transmageddon video transcoder

Transmageddon is a video transcoder for Linux which uses GStreamer. The latest 1.0 release comes with changes such as:

• support files with multiple audio streams,
• DVD ripping support. So know you can use your movie DVDs as input in Transmageddon, be aware though that you need to install things like lsdvd and the GStreamer dvdread plugin from gst-plugins-ugly for it to become available. And you probably also want libdvdcss installed to be able to transcode most movie DVDs;
• another small feature of the release is that you can now set language information on files with one audio stream inside. If you rip a DVD with multiple audio streams, Transmageddon will preserve the existing audio information, so in that case you shouldn’t need to set the language metadata manually;
• VP9 support.

This version only works in Ubuntu 14.04. Add the PPA and install it using the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install transmageddon

Or download the deb from HERE and install it manually.

To be able to rip DVDs using Transmageddon, you'll need to make sure that lsdvd, libdvdread4 and gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly are installed (and install libdvdcss2 via libdvdread4):

sudo apt-get install lsdvd libdvdread4 gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly

sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
