Pedro,

You mean rip AND convert rather than just rip? If ripping alone takes 
that long then there is something wrong .. I can rip a 
demacrovisioned, deregioned DVD to a single file in under 15 
minutes.. (that's a single VOB) I don't go in for recompressed 
versions, I just want the accesability... i did try encoding once but 
gave up as the process seems to be a right old pain in the arse... 
unless of course you can rip to divx without poncing about with 
demuxing and remuxing....
