Well, going to the command line, I have had good results with dvdbackup. The only issue I have found is that the current libdvdnav version (1.10) is broken and I had to revert one version to 1.9 in order to get this to work on my 64bit Centos 5.1 system. I've been able to rip DL DVD's with Sony layer-break protections as well as standard CSS encryption. So far, nothing I have thrown at it has failed to be burnable to a blank DVD. However, that is just the raw DVD copying functionality. These other tools covered by the review seem to do more, such as pulling a specific track or chapter out of the DVD. Thanks for the report. More tools for my toolbox.
