How to rip a DVD to DivX/XviD/H264 usingDVD::Rip

In this step-by-step tutorial I will explain how to transcode a DVD using DVD::Rip. DVD::Rip is
a graphical DVD ripper based on Transcode for Linux users. In other words it is a fully DVDcopy program written in Perl that allows you to control all aspects of the ripping and transcodingprocess. Transcode is yet another linux text-console utility to encode raw video/audio streams
extracted from, for example, DVD or Digital Video sources to DivX;-) or OpenDivX AVI files.
By default this free ripping software doesn't support copying encrypted DVD's which is illegal in
many countries. If there are no legal issues in your country you can install libdvdcss2 to decrypt
encrypted DVD's. Here are two tutorials for Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 8.10 and Fedora Cambridge10.

Install DVD::Rip from your distribution's repositories and run it. This is the program's mainwindow.

First you must check if you have all the needed dependencies install. Go to Debug -> CheckDependencies (or press Ctrl+D). Here as you can see I am missing xvid4conf and rar. Just use
your PMS (Package Management System) e.g. Synaptic or Yum, to install anything that is
missing. Once you do just restart DVDRip.

The first tab is Basic Settings. Choose your DVD device and the directories where all data will
be saved. Also set the preffered languages for the subtitles.

Same in the Cluster options tab. The cluster is only useful if you have many computers you wantto use to rip a DVD movie simultaneouslly thus making the ripping process faster.

Finally in the Miscellaneous options you can select the video codec for the ripping. Here I am
going to use the XviD codec, but there are other options available such as DivX, VCD andffmpeg (which gives mpeg4 and h264 output). The available container formats are avi, mpeg and
ogg. I will use avi. If you want to rip the DVD for a mobile device select ogg. If you select ogg
you can choose between .ogg and .ogm file extensions depending on what your mobile device,phone etc. uses. Finally you can either grab subtitles of your preffered language, grab all subtitles
or grab no subtitles at all.

When you are done with all the settings just press the Ok button. Now insert a DVD movie into
your DVD-rom drive. In the main program window click File -> New Project (or press Ctrl+N).Give your project a name, let's say MyMovie, and press the Create Project button. Just press Ok
in the pop up window. Apart from the DVD device you can select a DVD image directory from
you hard disk to encode into Divx/XviD. It is recommended to Copy data from DVD to yourhard disk before encoding so as not to stretch your DVD drive plus it's faster.

Now go to the Rip Title tab and press Read DVD table of Contents. The longest Title is the mainmovie (1). Select the Audio track (2) you want to rip and the viewing Angle (3), if there are
angles included in the movie. Again you can select which subtitles you want to grab (4). In the
Specify chapter mode (5) if you select None all chapters will be encoded into a single video files,
if you choose All the output will be a different video file for each Chapter in the Title, and if youselect Selection you can rip only one or more (by holding the Ctrl key) Chapters. You can also
use the View Selected Title/Chapters button (5) to make sure you have selected the correct one.When you are ready click the Rip selected Titles/Chapters button (6) and wait until the DVD isripped into your hard disk.

Once the ripping is finished go to the Clip and Zoom tab. Here dvd::rip should have taken apreview frame from the movie. If not or if you think the image isn't representative enough grab a
new one by entering a frame number and pressing Grab frame (1). The grabbed image will
appear in the preview section three times. The first shows the image after the first clipping, the
second after resizing and the third after the second clipping. Normally you don't have to makesomething else in here. However if you want to make some changes manually you are advised to
use the default presets (2). If you check the available presets you will see Fast Resizing and HQResize. The difference isn't so visible so just leave Fast Resize or make your own tests anddecide. If you want to have a specific width or height for your movie while keeping the correct
aspect ratio, you can use these buttons (3). E.g. you want to define the height, then enter your
value to the Height entry and press Calc width afterwards. The same applies vice versa, if you
want to define the width and like to have the proper height calculated.

Let's continue to the Subtitles tab. dvd::rip supports two subtitle modes: rendering and vobsubgeneration. If you render the subtitle e.g. hardcode them on them you can't switch them off or
change their appearance afterwards. So if you don't mind having subtitles in a different vobsub
file this is the best option. The quality remains the same as the original DVD and you can switch
them off if you want. dvd::rip doesn't support ripping subtitles into .srt format. You can read myguideHow to rip DVD subtitles to .srt in Linuxif you are interested on this.
So if you want to hardcode your subtitle tick Activate this subtitle for rendering (1). If haven'tpreviously clipped the movie a value of 0 is good for the Vertical offset, however if you had
you'd better increase this value. Also turn on Antialiasing (2) to get smoother subtitles. You can
also change the color of the subtitles if you like (3). To test what you have done select the
number of frames you want to preview and click the Open button (4).

Now we are ready for the encoding part. Go to the Transcode tab. First you must set thecontainer (1). Avi is ok. Next select the Video Codec (2). Here I will use xvid but you can select
ffmpeg and set h264 for the ffmpeg/af6 codec which gives smaller output files for the same
video quality. Next select the size of the output video (3). Normally 700MB files are fine. In the
Audio options you can choose between the mp3 and ac3 formats. Here I will use mp3 with128bits samplerate which gives a good sound quality. When you are ready press the Transcode
button (4). Of course there are many other options to play with but explaining here would need alot more of pages. However you can play a little yourself and check what your eyes and ears likebetter. ;)
