I plan going Linux anytime now. I have had some contact with Linux in the past, but didn't use it for playing video /ripping DVDs /encoding video and audio / using OGM as container. So I am really at loss now.
I call on anybody working with Linux to help me do this faster than working alone.
SO:
1-What are the names of the best players for Linux (or their homepages). Also, what software is used in Linux for CD/DVD ripping (some equivalent to Exact Audio Copy -EAC-, SmartRipper and the ASPI layer)? What about encoders?
2-How do they manage to read AVI/OGM? I have heard something about reusing the dlls from windows. How is that? (I think there is no directshow architecture under linux) Is there performance penalty when decoding or encoding?
3-Are there linux alternatives to VirtualDubMod (or has it been ported to linux)? What is the (free) OGM/AVI editing solution for Linux?
I thank all of you who answer.
