I guess I'm using the incorrect terminology.  I'm was using this
command:

   mplayer -vc null -vo null -hardframedrop -ao pcm -aofile ch2.wav -chapter 2 dvd://1

Ah, right.  I installed that a few months back.  I also have chaplin.
Thanks.

I suppose the way to do it is write a Perl script to play a little of
each chapter and select which ones I want, then extract out the chapters
one-by-one.  One of those cases where a GUI would be handy.

Thanks,
