I use mac the ripper to rip stuff and dvd assist to get it to play
through front row. Other than that a couple of scripts I hacked
together to make sure the network connections reconnect at startup and
wakeup and that's about it.

dvd assist puts a trailer of a few seconds on the front of your movie
(pre menu) which isn't a big problem. (OK, I know that's not exactly
how it works, but it is how it appears). It is basically a quicktime
lead in that fools the mac into playing from a folder instead of an
actual dvd. The only functionality you lose is that you can't go back
to a movie that you've watched previously and carry on where you left
it. All the disc menus etc still work though. As the whole setup is
small, quiet and largely childproof (in as much as these things can be)
the WAF is quite high too.
