Is no one else experiencing this?  I've tried several different DVDs and 
the result is very much the same with each one.

However, if I first rip the DVD to an AVI format (such as xvid) I can 
then use a transcoding script to convert it to an MPEG-2 file.  While 
this does provide a usable file it seems like a rather wasteful and 
convoluted method of getting there.

Should I not be able to extract the DVD video directly to an MPEG-2 
file?  Am I using the wrong settings somehow?  Or possibly missing 
something else?
