What's the latest path from DVD->AVI?

I've been converting my DVDs for some time now and have my full collection on drive in AVI form. Much easier than hunting thru boxes and having to wade thru previews.

Up until now I've been using Decryptor and AutoGK to handle this.

Unfortunately with the demise of Decryptor and new protection schemes this method is no longer as easy as it used to be. Sometimes DVDs refuse to rip and half the time the ones that do I have to jack around trying to get the audio stream in sync which is a real PITA.

So, after reading thru several pages of threads I'm not seeing a clear solution like I used to have. Is there one? Is there a 'free' solution or is it pay?

Your assistance would be most appreciated.

note: I'm not asking for help in any illegal ripping of DVDs, just legal backing up of mine to a hard drive so I don't have to hunt thru boxes.
