            Bug ID: 379166
           Summary: DVD Ripping Disabled
           Product: k3b
           Version: 2.0.3
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Video DVD
          Assignee: k3b at kde.org
          Reporter: jspeter at jimsara.org

  Target Milestone: ---

On 11/28/16, in commit 88c0c9 (and a related commit 0cbea6), Leslie Zhai
commented out the contents of K3b::addTranscodePrograms (in
./libk3b/core/k3bdefaultexternalprograms.cpp), declaring the "transcode"
program as deprecated.  Unfortunately, K3b::VideoDVDRippingView::reloadMedium
(in ./src/rip/videodvd/k3bvideodvdrippingview.cpp) explicitly calls
k3bcore->externalBinManager()->foundBin("transcode") to see if it should enable
the "Start ripping" option when a video DVD is set to be ripped.  The effect of
the change is that K3B can no longer rip DVDs, since the button to begin is
disabled and K3B pops up a dialog that says "K3b uses transcode to rip Video
DVDs. Please make sure it is installed", even though it is installed.

Uncommenting the commented-out code and recompiling and installing libk3b7
allows K3B to rip DVDs again.

did:

      sudo apt-get build-dep k3b
      apt-get source k3b
      cd k3b-2.0.3a+git20170325
      find . -type f | xs grep Deprecated
      vi libk3b/core/k3bdefaultexternalprograms.cpp
      dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b
      sudo dpkg -i ../libk3b7_2.0.3a+git20170325-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb
