You might try the VideoLan player http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html If it can be played, then VideoLan should be able to do it.
Extraction is another question, as there are mainly two types of DVD movies: encrypted and non-encrypted. A lot of people like Forty-two for the non-encrypted ripping. Try http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdripping for several articles on how to do extractions. Jerry p.s. Why in the world would they use RW discs for something like this? I would think they would not want folks re-writing those "memories"..., not to mention they cost more than the R discs do, but hey that's just my thoughts.
