ccextractor installed but not working - super slow rips

Post by dvdizme »

Hello,

I am having issues where ccextractor is not extracting subtitles and causes a rip that would normally take about twelve minutes to run over two hours. This is the procedure that I used to install it:

1. New Terminal
2. Change to the directory you want ccextractor installed (this uses your home directory)
cd ~
3. Install git
sudo apt-get install git
4. Install the needed libraries and utilities. This can be done one by one, or all at once.
One by one:
sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr
sudo apt-get install libtesseract-dev
sudo apt-get install libleptonica-dev
5. Get a copy of the files from github. After installing git in step 3, this connects to the CCExtractor git pages. Those pages host all of the source code to create CCExtractor.
git clone https://github.com/CCExtractor/ccextractor
6. Change into the ccextractor linux build directory
cd ccextractor/linux/
7. Build ccextractor
./build
8. Determine full path to your executable (copy the output if necessary)
pwd
It should look like
Code: Select all
/home/govtgeek/ccextractor/linux/
9. Open MakeMKV (I assume you're not using the command line)
10. Open Preferences (View > Preferences) or Wrench icon
11. Under the "General" tab, enable "Expert Mode"
12. Under the "Advanced" tab (appears after Expert Mode is enabled), there is an entry for "ccextractor executable location". Find ccextractor using the browse files button on the right, or enter it manually using output from step 8 and including ccextractor at the end. It should look like this (except with your username):
/home/govtgeek/ccextractor/linux/ccextractor

I did not receive any errors when installing. MakeMKV version is 1.14.5 PC specs Ryzen 2600x 24GB Ram Kingston SSD Ubuntu 18.04

Any help troubleshooting this issue would be greatly appreciated!
