Script for easy conversion of DVD to mpgs for N800

#And when you are finished hacking it to bits drop me a line and I will happily
#add the hacked bits to this script for others
#But dont forget to go and get a Purple alert Card for those emergencies

# $1 = DVD/VIDEO_TS (eg. /media/TitleOfDVD )
# $2 = ~/dvds/titlename/title1 to $3 
# ($3 = number of titles)
# if no args then show do ls of /media and of /mnt
# and if no $2 then show number of titles in $1
