DVDPatcher for Linux?

[bilu]

Hi,

Anybody know of a Linux tool that works like DVDPatcher?

Could be the best way to make DVD backups under FFMPEG, at least until a new CVS build that respects maximum bitrate :)

Best regards,

what's a DVDPatcher anyway ?

Have a look at step 4 here:

it's a tool to change the MPEG-2 header to fool the authoring tools about the bitrate, resolution, etc.

From what I've heard it seems that it even can fool standalone players if needed.

...isn`t it possible to use dvdpatcher with wine ?

Not an option to consider, at least for me.
I'm looking for command-line tools dor use with Linux or FreeBSD.
