#5 Config file bug ?

[Anonymous]

Hi Steel_J,

I had a look at my config file, and found that I was
getting the variable DVD_DEVICE_DEVICE being set to
/dev/dvd which looked a bit odd.

In the script at line 189 is there a "_DEVICE" one too
many ?

># If config file doesn't exist, create it
>if [[ ! -e "$CONFIG_FILE" ]]; then
>echo "DVD_DEVICE_DEVICE /dev/dvd" > "$CONFIG_FILE"
>echo "WORKING_DIR /home/$USER" >> "$CONFIG_FILE"
>fi

I also have the same error message being reported from
the other bug report:
/usr/local/bin/dvrequant: line 69: let:
TOT_SECONDS=080: value too great for base (error token
is "080")

Next I have added a new variable DVD_RECORD to the
.dvrequant_config which I have placed in the end of the
script as follows. My reasoning is I have an internal
DVD reader in my laptop,and an external DVD writer. I
will also remove the pause for "Hit Enter" for burning
(good to keep as is for all users), as then I can fill
up my DVD drives and kick off your script last thing at
night, and then wake up with all the work done for me !!

Please see the quick change to the end of your script
below:
echo "BURNING:"
echo "Use to burn image: growisofs -dvd-compat -Z
$DVD_RECORD=$DISK_TITLE.iso "
echo "Insert blank dvd and press ENTER"
read BURN
cd $WORKING_DIR/$DISK_TITLE
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z $DVD_RECORD=$DISK_TITLE.iso

Lastly a quick thank you, as this is exactly the script
I was looking for, for the kids versions of my DVD
library (always bad to have jam on the original DVD
copy !!)

I quite enjoyed reading the 17 pages on linux questions
last night and things can progress quite a long way
with these sorts of projects.
