I set it up recently and found it pretty easy to do, by following the
instructions on the web page to the letter (except I used cifs rather than
nfs, as I am more familiar with it). It worked well.

However I am a little confused about the statement in the web docs that
"Title needs to be copied on harddisk, no on-the-fly or DVD image
transcoding possible."

Its the last bit "no ... DVD image transcoding possible".

There may be a work around where you "rip" the vobs again in dvd::rip? I
dunno, I hope it works for you.
