About:
Lsdvd is a command-line utility that extracts and displays detailed information from DVD video discs. It reads the DVD structure to provide data on titles, chapters, audio tracks, and subtitles. This tool is primarily valuable for scripting and automation tasks where DVD content details need to be programmatically accessed.
Key Features:
  • Extracts detailed DVD structure information
  • Outputs data in a parseable format
  • Displays track, chapter, and audio/subtitle details
  • Lightweight and script-friendly
Use Cases:
  • Automating DVD ripping workflows by identifying track lengths and languages
  • Generating logs or reports of DVD content for media libraries
Alternatives:
  • HandBrake – HandBrake is a full-featured video transcoder with a GUI, whereas lsdvd is a lightweight CLI tool solely for reading DVD metadata.
  • libdvdread – libdvdread is a library providing low-level DVD access, while lsdvd is a user-facing application that uses such libraries to present human-readable output.
