I use DVD Decrypter - does everything I need it to. I have used DVD Shrink in the past which is handy for shrinking DL DVDs to fit a single layer DVD.

Thanks, i'll try that. Have used DVD Shrink before so know it's a cracking program.

Sorry i should have been a little more clear, i need something that will create avi's from DVD's not just rip them.

handbrake

I'm using FairUse at the moment, will give Handbrake a try if it doesn't work out thanks

Handbrake is good for ripping stuff to iPods but for PC based video I prefer AutoGK. I also use a program called AnyDVD to allow me to rip straight from DVD.

Gordian Knot would be my suggestion, it contains pretty much everything you could possibly need. It may take a couple of tries to work out because there is a fair bit to it because it is so powerful but it really isn't that hard and the FAQs seem pretty good.

DVD Decrypter in IFO mode to rip the DVDs. AutoGK to convert the ripped DVD into avi with subtitles.

Btw 'ello Cliffy. Enjoy the footie and beers last night?

Hello, i certainly did

.

I found FairUse very easy to use and am very happy with the results, grabbed a retail version off a torrent so i could change file size from 700mb to 1gig for a slightly higher resolution. Plus it had no sound sync problems at all.

What it can't do is help me with is one of the films i am trying to convert which has come down as the VOB files etc and not an actual ISO so i can't mount it. Anyone know a good way of getting round that without creating a DVD job in Nero?
