Archive DVD to AVCHD that will play on PS3

HI all,

Here's what I want to do: Backup DVD content *including* menu navigation and subtitles. I want to take advantage of smaller file sizes of H.264 while preserving 5.1 AC3 audio (AVCHD). I want to be able to playback the content on my PS3. I'm using a Windows OS.

I currently use DVDDecrpter/DVD43 or DVDFab to rip the DVD contents to my Windows system.

The next step in my main question, how to I convert the DVD with menus and subtitles into a compressed (H.264) format while preserving menus and subtitles. Or how can I create my own menus for navigation between different files.

What container does the AVCHD need to go in for use on the PS3?

For an individual file it seems like I could use Handbrake to MKV (with H.264 and AC3) then MkV2VOB to get a playable file. But how do I do this for an entire DVD and keep the menus?
