Good Windows DVD Ripper?

I wanna know a good DVD ripper for my desktop so I can transfer DVDs to my netbook when I need. I've been really looking for one for a pretty long time, so help me find one

 

MaximumPC has an article in how to go about it.

 

Try searching, there was a thread on this created no more than 4 days ago.

 

DVDFab, life is good.

 

+1. Been using DVDFab for a long time and it's the best I've tried.

 

For DVDs without Copyright protection - Windows Explorer does the trick.

Be advised that owning tools to crack or bypass copyright may be ilegal in some countries - even though you are allowed to make one backup copy for personal purposes.

 

your right, check your countries copyright laws.

for example in Canada...
if you copy your music off a CD that you bought to your Ipod then you are not allowed to use that disk as a 'playing device'. so if you have the media on your Ipod, you can't toss it in your DVD play to listen to it(legally that is). almost noone knows about it; nor does anyone care.

 

I use handbrake, it's the best. And i decrypt them with DVDecrypter

 

I think in the UK you may not even legally copy music onto an MP3 player...
But no-one cares, and I doubt they would fine you for it if you have the original CD.
In fact there have been calls for this to be revised...

 

Format Factory, great app and it's free.

 

DVD43 + DVD Decrypter + Videora makes a good combo and they are all free.

 

FairUse Wizard is the one i use,
its great, takes awhile though...but that is true for most "dvd rippers"

and, its free.
which is always a plus.

 

Fab is free too and doesn't take too long.

 

I'd say DVD Decrypter + AutoGK. AutoGK is the best automated tool one can find to convert to XviD.
If you know a bit about ripping, or can learn quickly from guides, checkout GKnot. The is a comprehensive guide at doom9, made by its creat0r. If your desktop has a decent CPU, you can also convert using the x264 codec, which gives alot better quality.

If you can get a copy of Nero Recode 3, thats automated and pretty good as well, and Main-level rips are xbox-ps3 friendly.

 

I was going to say that also. the March 2009 issue has a good article on it, but if your too cheap to buy it, you can read the may 2007 article at google books:

I use DVDFab, it's free, easy to use and works.

Because I don't want vob files I use a second free tool, called VOB2MPG which 'converts' the vob files to mpeg files, without recompressing them. And if you want to rip a home burned DVD then you only need VOB2MPG.

 

Ashampoo Burning studio is so money and you don't even know it.

 

Too many confusing ways to rip a dvd. After all these years isn't there one method everybody recognizes as being hands down the best ever?

 

Its not that difficult, bung the disc in the drive, open the program, make sure you know where the files are gonna be ripped to, select what you want, audio/subtitles/titles wise, press rip...... wait

Give dvd fab a try, the ripper part is free.
