This is probably dated as new software has been introduced, but I still use it. http://www.debiantutorials.org/copyi...linux-etch-247

dvdshrink is the last windows program that I run (I run it with wine). For me, it just works better than anything else. K9copy has come a long way in the last couple of years, so I do keep an eye on it.

I tried k9copy on two movies I was trying to backup yesterday but it failed and crashed both times. May need to go back to dvdshrink again.

i use mencoder , ffmpeg, and dvdauthor (mencoder to rip and ffmpeg to re-convert), then burn with growisofs
, not the easiest, but dvdauthor has qdvdauthor that can be configured to run dvdauthor and growisofs
also you could try vlc (www.videolan.org) to rip/convert and qdvdauthor/dvdauthor

Try out:
Quote:
mencoder dvd://1 -alang en -o "./your/directory/my.dvd" \
-oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:mbd=1:vbitrate=1800
It works for me! (See man mencoder for details)

Arch Linux
