dvdrip installs OK, but when invoked I get: amber ~ $ dvdrip [filterlist] (re)scanning transcode's module path /usr/lib64/transcode... and nothing else. CPU usage nil. Control-C quits.

read through this thread: http://www.exit1.org/archive/dvdrip-users/2005-11/msg00000.html The problem is with transcode, there are a couple of filters (which I am clueless about) that have problems, and when dvd::rip looks at them on startup, transcode hangs, and so does dvd::rip in turn. To see it for yourself, run "tcmodinfo -i compare" and "tcmodinfo -i logo" and see if they hang. To fix the problem, add: =media-video/transcode-1.0.2-r2 ~x86 =dev-libs/lzo-2.02-r1 ~x86 to /etc/portage/package.keywords, and then update transcode, with the 'extrafilters' USE flag disabled. If the extrafilters USE flag is enabled, the problematic filters will be installed, and the problem will persist.
this should work for both 0.97.6 and 0.52.7 on amd64, i am using 0.52.7 on my amd64 as we speak the USE=extrafilters on transcode is the best thing i can think of the stable and unstabe dvdrip both now check for the use of that USE flag, if it hasn't been merged, cool, we build dvdrip, if extrafilters was used, then we bail out and tell you to remerge transcode, this should be a one time deal and not break -e world i consider this fixed since you will neither in ~arch nor arch a dvdrip that does that on amd64 or ppc, unfortunately i have no control over x86, thus we go and wait till we close out this bug
since this is a amd64 bug, i will close it, i get nice guis on 0.52.7-r1 and 0.97.6-r1, yes 0.52.7 gets a gui too, only difference is it still has the fping use flag enjoy
