Ripping blu-ray images via asbest0S

[Finde]

Hey all,

I have spent quite a while trying to figure this out and I finally got it. I decided that I should post it here showing anyone in case they are having the same issues.

So, I have no external hdd, only a 16gb usb stick so I was unable to use that as a partition to format it too.

I used kha0S linux v3.

Requirements:
Another computer running linux.
kha0S linux v3
asbest0S V1.5
lvl2 patcher v9
Blu-ray disk you want to rip
openps3ftp 2.0
You will need su access for terminal

Method:
1. Download kha0S linux v3

2. Extract the file 'linux.img' to your desktop.

3. Open a terminal on your linux distro (I'm using ubuntu) and type
cd /home/user/Desktop/
(replace 'user' with your username)

4. Now we will be creating an empty .img file to the size of your choosing. I chose a 52gb file to be large enough to hold any blu-ray movie.
Using this command
dd if=/dev/zero of=linux2.img seek=55500999999 bs=1 count=1
For me, this created a 51.7gb file. You can change it to whatever you wish though.

5. In terminal type
mke2fs -F debian2.img

6. Now it is time too mount the two images
mkdir linux
mkdir linux2
mount -o loop linux.img linux
mount -o loop linux2.img linux2

7. Now to copy all of the contents of the original linux.img to the new linux.img
cd /home/user/Desktop/linux/

cp -R -f * /home/user/Desktop/linux2

8. Now to unmount them - if they won't unmount for you then don't worry, that is a common thing so just restart your computer.

umount linux
umount linux2

9. Now to delete the two folders we made - if you had to reboot, make sure you don't forget too do the command cd /home/user/Desktop/ again.
rm -r -f linux
rm -r -f linux2

10. Now, delete the old image and rename the new image
rm linux.img
mv linux2.img linux.img

11. Now, to set permissions for the new linux.img
chmod a+x linux.img
chmod 777 linux.img

Congratulations on successfully completing the first part!

12. Using openftpps3 2.0, transfer the new linux.img to /dev_hdd0/ on your PS3.

13. Install asbest0S v1.5 and wait until it says press x to close then go into lvl2 patcher v9 and select the linux option.

14. Once it is booted, use the username ps3 and the password ps3 to enter into the OS.

15. With the blu-ray disc you are wanting to rip inserted, type into terminal
dd if=/media/NAME/ of=/home/user/Desktop/NAME

16. Once that is done, using network sharing, copy the file from the ps3 linux to any computer.

You have now successfully ripped the disc

I hope this helps someone!

Or, you could mount a samba share or any other type and send it over the network.
This is what I do.

mount -t smbfs -o username=[username],password=[password] //path/to/share /local/mount/point

Then

dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/path/to/mounted/network/share/file.iso

Or you can specify the bitsize and split it, and rejoin on your pc, I found a speed increase when I did this.
use "copy /b file.iso.* file.iso" to join the files on windows.

dd if=/dev/sr0 bs=4096 | split -b 10240m - /path/to/mounted/network/share/file.iso.

There you go. Way simpler.

I tried for hours to get samba to work and I just kept failing at it though. I shall try it again with those commands when I get home though.

I found an easier way to do that.

Install OpenSSH server and client to your distro

sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client

Connect through the pc you wanna have the backup on

ssh target_address dd if=remotefile | dd of=localfile

and type the password of your linux user

Example

ssh 192.168.2.6 dd if=/dev/sr0 | dd of=/Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/Resident.iso

Note
192.168.2.6 is the IP of the Linux running in the PS3.

Thank you so much!!!!

After weeks I still couldn't get it working but finally I do
Thank you!

Now the really complicated part begins. The only reliable software I found to deal with encrypted blurays was AnyDVD.
With this experience, I learned that it's easier to download backups from movies I already have than to rip them from the BluRay.

For ripped blu-ray movies I use DVDFab. It works perfectly for me.

Well, good for you!
I guess that beeing able to rip a single blu-ray is enough for me.

I might just have to install this asbest0S, Is it possiable to copy it to a HDD hooked up to the ps3 rather than over the network? Does linux on ps3 accept ntfs drives? Its been a long time since i have used it.

Im trying to copy and split the iso to an external drive but having issues.

I tried

sudo dd if=/dev/sr0/RED_BIRD_3D_WW bs=4096 | split -b 1024m -/dev/sda2/RED_BIRD_3D_WW.iso

but it says that /dev/sr0/RED_BIRD_3D_WW is not a directory, how can i solve this please?
