Try Doom9 and get DVD Decrypter or Smartripper. If you feel like being adventurous, you can even re-encode your movies to DivX so they take up less space on your HD.

SmartRipper & AutoGK is my favorite pair of utilities on my laptop.

SmartRipper goes from the DVD itself to a decrypted VOB files on your harddrive. AutoGK will go from the decrypted VOB files to an XViD file - you tell it the size you want. It [b]will[b/] take a while to run AutoGK - put aside a good 8 hours for a full length DVD.

SmartRipper should run fairly quickly, though.

Both of these can be found on Doom9

Thanks for the help. Doom9 is a good site. Now I have another Prob.
I ripped a movie using smartripper and gordian knot, and xvid encoded it, but the sound runs at 1x speed and the movie at 2x
am I doing something wrong? Im sure I am but I dont know what.

If you follow Doom9's AutoGK Tuturoial it will rip and re-encode into Xvid just fine... what did you use to rip/encode the audio track?
