    Install all the Softwares (Download them...all are freewares)……….

    1) DivX Create Bundle

    2) DVD2AVI

    3) DVD Decrypter

    4) LAME ACM Codec

    5) Virtual Dub



    Step (1): Insert your DVD into the drive and launch DVD decrypter. DVD
    Decrypter will detect the DVD and its file contents will now be
    displayed in the right pane. Now go to File > Browse and select the
    destination for the ripped VOB files. Keep in mind that the destination
    must have enough free space to store the contents of the entire DVD.



    Step (2): After choosing the destination, click on File>Decrypt to
    start the decryption process. DVD Decrypter removes the Macrovision
    Protection by default, and you can set to remove region code as well by
    going to Tools > IFO > Region > Patch > Region Free. These
    are necessary for the next step. After the DVD ripping process is
    completed, close DVD Decrypter.



    Step (3): Next Launch DVD2AVI. Go to File > Open. Make sure the
    correct track number in the Audio menu is selected. You need to find
    the correct track number-most DVDs have multiple audio tracks in
    different languages. This can be checked by selecting one track at a
    time and playing it. Also click on the Audio menu and navigate to
    “48>44.1KHz”, and select Off. Go to Help > SIMD Technology and
    select all the optimizations supported by your processor. Now go to
    File > Save As AVI.



    Step (4): Decide on a file name and choose a location with enough free
    space. You will now be prompted to choose a video compressor. Choose
    “DivX 6.x.x” from the drop-down menu where you can select the video
    compressor.



    Step (5): Under the Certification Profiles, you can choose an
    appropriate preset profile such as High Definition, Home Theatre,
    Portable, Handheld, and Unconstrained. When you choose one of the above
    profiles, it is virtually guaranteed that the encoded DivX file will be
    playable on any standalone DivX-certified player. Click on Settings.
    You can select a bitrate of your choice. A higher bitrate means a
    larger file size and better quality, while a lower bitrate means a
    smaller file size and lower image quality.



    Step (6): In the Codec tab, you can set the Encoding mode. The default
    setting is a good trade-off between quality and compression, but if you
    wish to control the file size, you can state your own mode such as High
    Performance, Better Quality, etc. Click on OK and then on save to start
    the video

    demultiplexing process. This will take some time depending on the speed
    of your computer. At the end of this process, you’ll have an AVI file
    and a WAV file.



    Step (7): We now get to the creation of the DivX file-putting together
    the video (AVI) and audio (WAV) files that were created in the previous
    step. Launch Virtual Dub. Under File > Open, browse to the folder
    where the AVI and WAV files are stored. Select the AVI file and click
    Open.



    Step (8): Click on the Audio menu and click “Full Processing Mode”.
    Click again on the Audio menu and select “WAV Audio”. You will be
    prompted to open a WAV file. Select the WAV file you created earlier
    and click Open. Click on the Audio menu and then on Compression. Select
    “MPEG Layer-3” from the left pane and then select “128 KBit/s,
    48,000Hz, Streo” in the right pane. Click OK.



    Step (9): Select Interleaving from the Audio menu. Then, select the
    “mis” radio button and input “500” into the “Interleave audio every”
    dialog box. Click OK. Again, in the Audio menu, select Volume. Check
    the box and move the slider to 200 percent. Click OK.



    Step (10): From the Video menu, select Direct Stream Copy.



    Step (11): Go to File > Save As. Enter a file name of your choice at
    a location of your choice, and click at a location of your choice, and
    click OK. This, again, will take some time, but not as much as the
    video encoding using DVD2AVI. After the process is complete, you’ll
    have a DivX backup of ypur DVD movie.



    Step (12): All that’s left now is to burn the DivX backup up to CD or DVD using your DVD-Writer.
