DVD-Ripper like...

Hi there!

I wonder if there is a linux-DVD-ripper like DVD-Shrink for windose ...

If you don't know DVD-Shrink: It simply lets you rip a complete Movie-DVD to HD, setting every track a own compression, or you can choose the tracks you want from a DVD in remastering-mode. Does not compress to Divx or so... just compresses the vobs, so you can directly burn it to a DVD...

Someone knows a similar programm?

Thanks, Sascha

Hi if you are in to gui you could use dvd::rip which is pretty much easy to use. If you just want to rip the DVD to VOB files in your harddrive use "vobcopy" in freshmeat.net. I am yet to find an easy way to transcode in command mode.
dvd::rip just does the job. I think it runs on perl or something

Hi there!

Have been looking around a bit... a bit :-) I think something like vobcopy does almost what I want...

The interesting thing would be some programm that compresses the vob's ... so I could fit them onto a DVD5 ...
Is there something additional to vobcopy that can manage this task?

Greets, Sascha
