Open Source BSD DVD Rippers

QtlMovie is a graphical frontend to FFmpeg, DVD Author, telxcc, CCExtractor, mkisofs and growisofs. QtlMovie is not a general purpose frontend to FFmpeg, so many of them already exist. QtlMovie focuses on a small number of tasks such as the generation of DVD or iPad movie files from any video file or DVD. The unique feature of QtlMovie is the ability to correctly handle most types of subtitles: DVD, DVB, SRT, SSA/ASS, Teletext, Closed Captions and burn them into the output video in one click.

THIS VERSION WILL NO LONGER BE MAINTAINED! Please go to https://github.com/nschlia/libdvdetect for updates. The libdvdetect library provides fast lookup of DVDs, similar to existing services for CDs like Gracenote, freeDB or MusicBrainz. The DVD Detection Library (libdvdetect) is a library to lookup DVDs in a database and provide information about e.g. title, UPC/EAN or even cover arts. It is OS-independent and compiles for Windows or Unix operating systems. Mac support is also planned. What the library does not provide is DVD ripping and decryption. It reads the structure (e.g. titles and chapters) and generates a special checksum to look up the database. More details at http://www.dvdetect.de. The database can also be searched using a web browser at http://search.dvdetect.de/. For those who are curious I suggest downloading the binaries from https://sourceforge.net/projects/libdvdetect/files/binaries/ to try it out (windows only).

Movieconvert is an easy to use graphical frontend to mencoder (from the mplayer project). It tends on users which don't like the command line. It is not a dvd ripping or video cutting tool, it is a tool for converting videos. It is build in C using GTK+.
