You can try aimersoft dvd to mp4 converter, it can easily convert dvd to mp4 with high quality, works great for me

Super is very good too and will convert pretty much every audio & video to any other audio/video combination & its free!

With you saying MP4, Are you wanting to put the DVD to iPod? If so try Handbrake. Versions for Mac, Windows and Linux.

Thanks for the dowload suggestions, I'll give them all a try.

All the best

Nero recode will also do it as will ffmpeg (which I think handbrake uses under the covers) if you're happy with command-line stuff.

DVD Shrink can also be used to dump the DVD contents to a drive to sort out encoding from there.

Dont forget If it is a copy protected cd, then you have to decrypt it first.

On a PC I use DVD Shrink or Slysofts anydvd product (or I would If i ever did this, beacuse it is a little naughty)

On the Mac, "Mac the ripper" does the trick

DVD Shrink copies the decrypted dvd files to your PC Slysoft just sits between the dvd and the pc allowing you to copy it without doing anything else, mac the ripper also copies to the hdd first.

Then you have to convert the resulting folders (or decrypted dvd) to divx/xvid or h264 using something like the products already mentioned or I think mpegstreamclip will also do this.
