Hi Larry,
I was hoping that Annie or someone else who has used this recently
would respond, but I'd suggest you try Metakine's DVD Remaster or
Remaster Pro program:
http://www.metakine.com/products/dvdremaster/
You may want the Pro version, which preserves more multiple audio
tracks, and also lets you separate off either audio or video tracks
(although it doesn't sound as though this would be a requirement for
your). This processes movies at least 3 times faster than Handbrake,
apart from the other options. The interface is very accessible. I
can't speak from direct experience, because I don't do much movie
watching or ripping. However, this was extensively discussed on the
Mac-access list last year, and one of the list members contacted the
developer to make what was already an extremely accessible product
work even better with VoiceOver. So, when Annie asked for a
recommendation on this list, I suggested this product, and I think
she's been fairly happy with it. I'll just state that this seems to
be the DVD conversion application of choice among people who do this
en masse on the Mac-access list. It costs $39.99 for the regular
version and $49.99 for the pro version, with free trial downloads so
that you can check this out for yourself.
HTH, and maybe some other list members who use this can comment.
Cheers,
Esther

Hi,
Can someone point me to software that I can use to convert DVD to
MP4 or another file format that I can use. My wife has several DVDs
she owns that have arobic workouts on them and, as she will be
traveling quite a bit in the near future, she wants to end up being
able to use the air video app on the iPad to watch them. This
application plays many video file formats and my real issue is
finding a Mac product that will capture the audio/video and copy it
to my computer hard drive.
Thanks for any help with this.
