I do use mpv to play ~ all my video files, but I also wrote the following in January of *2022* (in ~/docs/Multimedia.md): Apparently you can dump the video files belonging to one episode using VLC, but that was rather cumbersome and it wasn't very clear to me what it did or what I should do. Luckily, ``mplayer`` is (still) packaged for Debian and with that, one can dump a whole episode into a single VOB file: ``$ mplayer dvd://2 -dvd-device ALIAS_SEASON_1D1.iso -v -dumpstream -dumpfile S01E02.vob`` The value after ``dvd://`` is the Title number that ``lsdvd`` showed us earlier. So I'm glad that several people indicated they wanted to improve mplayer in Debian and I'll try to 'chip in' when I have some free time. Cheers, Diederik
