Ripping VCDs

Copying vcds on linux is a bit tricky. The normal cp and mv doesn't work.
So we need to rip the cds. Here's how to do it using mencoder
mencoder vcd://1 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vhq -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=128 -o Song1.avi

If you need to rip the multiple files, you can put in a small loop

for i in `seq 1 10` ; do mencoder vcd://$i -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vhq -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=128 -o Song$i.avi; done;
