Comment 12 for bug 574870

Hi all,

>>If a software can rip a bluray disc, it should be able to rip the media from an AVCHD camera as well (together with the metadata), since they both use the same format.

To my knowledges, there are none software under GNU/Linux which can rip a blu-ray disk (without using Wine and derivative GUI).
And more generally, The AVCHD format is not well supported on our system. Saying that, I'm thinking at this problem and another one when you want to create an authoring Blu-ray disk.

I'm wondering me if something could be done to the Kernel side ? =>udev & Cies........ No?
In fact, if the size file was not cutting, it will be more easy for users and ...........developers too.
And the other question which comes is that if his files are not cutting, metadata are they always present ?

 >>Mine is a sony so it isn't quite identical, but could the few differences mess it up? Which folder was u supposed to use the script on? I tried all the ones that made sense to

A good start could be to have a base of all the structure available of all marks Camecorders and like this, see if there are some differences. Another thing could be to have a rush of each structure/camecorders that everybody could use for studying and testing and like this see if something could be implemented.

For sample, I have not (yet) a AVCHD Camecorder (=>I am yet in DV Camecorder) and it will be difficult to implement something if we can even not test them.

We'll study your work and We'll speak soon between us of that and I'll give you more information about this subject soon. So it is the reason what I put it now in our wishlist.
