Well, you can rip them with DVD Shrink, load the VOBs into Virtual Dub mod and either save them as AVIs, or frameserve them to TMPGEnc for encoding to MPEGs.

The easiest way I have found to get the mpge from a DVD is to use TMPGEnc DVD Author (available with a 30 day trial).
Start a new project and select DVD video as your source. Select the title you want from your DVD and then check the "copy to HDD" option. It copies the MPG2 to your hard drive.
You could also use TMPGEnc DVD author to re-master your DVD's.

Hope this helps.
