[Rumori] DVD ripper

[PeterALopez]

I haven't come to a definite favorite OSX aud/vid ripper/converter yet (there are so many file formats that a process you've gotten to work with one dvd won't work the same on another...) but ffmpegx does certain tasks well.

I've read threads suggesting Handbrake
http://handbrake.m0k.org/
and when all that fails; and you just want the audio anyway:

Basically this program just intercepts the audio of any program and saves it.  as long as you can find something to play the original, your good to go.  (free version allows for 10 minutes before it adds static)

For general video/audio questions these two sites are great resources.

On a similar note, is there a quick and easy way to rip audio off of a DVD
on a Mac OS X system? I have a bunch of concert DVDs and I'd like to rip the
audio to individual mp3 files. The PC seems to have several dedicated
applications that'll do this, but on Mac it looks like a messy, multi-stage
endeavour ...
