    I admin that I do not know much about how DVDs work -- or really CDDA,
    either. I don't really understand how VOBs related to titles and
    chapters, for example. Some day I need to read a primer...

    So these are some basic questions:

    I know how to rip to audio from a dvd using mplayer. Here's one
    way:

      mplayer -quiet -ao pcm -aofile a.wav -vo null -vc dummy dvd://

    I have two questions:

    1) I assume that there's some type of table of contents/menu in the dvd
    that sets the sequence the VOBs(?) are played. Is there a way I can
    extract out the audio in the same sequence that the dvd would play in a
    dvd player?

    2) If I extract audio into a large wav file is there a tool that would
    allow me to set track locations when burning the audio? In other words,
    anyone know of a (GUI?) tool that would make it easy to set track
    locations when I have a single large wav file that contains many
    sections/parts/chapters? I think what I need is a way to create a CUE
    or table of contents *** for cdrecord.
