What's the best method for converting DVD to Xvid?

[fwtong]

I looked through the guides section, and there are couple of different methods for converting DVDs to Xvid. I'm looking for the best balance of speed, quality and ease of use.

Thanks in advance

i like Vidomi for DivX encoding and assume if you install
Xvid codec alongside, you will get ability to turn a sequence of vobs
into one DivX or Xvid file

I agree with Baldrick, if you're after ease of use, AutoGK is a cool tool. Vidomi is OK, but I found it could get a little unstable when I use other applications while it's running. That could just be my machine, though. 8)

I personally use the full-blown Gordian Knot, but it's a bit confusing so I would stay away just now. If you feel ready for moving onto a more advanced tool, I'd suggest Gordian Knot. You get total control.
