hi,
i'm noz sure that the above method works if the DVDs are copy-protected.

my tip: use handbrake, choose and average bitrate of 1500kbps (or  
more), select 2-pass encoding, select the movie language and  
subtitles, and press "rip". easy.
the only issue with handbrake is that you lose the menus, you just  
end up with an mpeg4 file.
