So, my professor has a ton of demonstration videos that would be very useful for my dental class, but they are on DVD discs. I need to come up with an very easy solution to convert these DVD discs into AVI files so I figure using command-line utils should do the trick, unless there is a robust open-source all-in-1 solution. I tried using DVDx but that program craps out because of the way the DVD is encoded.

I just use DVD Decypter to rip the DVD, and AutoGK to turn it into an AVI. Both are pretty much a one click process. I don't know of any command-line utils but there should be some out there. DVD Decrypter is very good at removing most types of encoding, unfortunately for that very reason, it was forced out of development and you can really only find it through some sort of file sharing. AutoGK is freeware and is easily available.

It's not to hard to find DVD decrypter. I just used a simple google search for it the last time I needed. I think it was even the first hit too.

Oh really? Cool then. Last time I tried searching for it was a few years ago like right after they were forced to stop working on it. It seemed like every site I went to had recently removed the download link for legal reasons. Since I knew it wasn't getting updated anymore, I just kept the same exe file so I haven't needed to download it again since.
