DVD->MPEG with TV-Type DVD's ?

[CzechMate]

Ok, I'm just not finding what I want for this.

I purchased the Simpsons, Futurama, etc season box sets and I want to make an mpeg out (and then possibly divx from there) out of each episode. So like, for one dvd, I will probably have 8 mpeg files or however many episodes are on one dvd. Basically this is for watching on my pc without having to have the dvd in the drive.

Is there a program and/or guide to do this? I am very familiar with a lot of dvd tools but I haven't come across one that will do this.

You have to rip the DVD, split it by title, and remux the VOBs of each title into a single MPEG file. For example, use IfoEdit to find PGCs that contain each episode right on the DVD, then rip these PGCs one by one in DVD Decrypter's IFO mode using stream processing to get rid of extra soundtracks and subtitles. Then demux each title with VobEdit into video and audio, and mux it back into one MPEG file with TMPGEnc. If you want to end up with a standard MPEG file, you'll probably have to convert AC3 audio to MP2 with BeSweet for emample before muxing.
