Ripping trailers (movie presentations) from dvd to divx

[crazymike]

I've a friend of mine that has a videoclub and he asked me if I could rip the movie trailers that usualy come with dvd's for rental so he could put them in a rental machine so people could watch them before renting. I would need to rip the subtitles too.

Anybody has an idea how to do this ?

I was thinking in using flakmpeg but dont know if that this is the best program or if it rips subtitles but I've also been having problems finding the files that have the trailers (usualy are in begining) any ideas how?

What I've been doing is simply opening flaskmpeg and then open media and selecting each VTS_00_0 (something like this) files and trying to find wich ones are the traileres. But this isnt very practical and hasnt worked in my case. I guess there must be a easier way to find the trailers. Or even use another better program tham flaskmpeg.

Thanks for any ideas

Try first using DVD Shrink, in "Re-author" mode, to isolate the trailers...

Sorry for bothering you guys again but I've tryed using the dvd shrink and it worked perfectly very quick and easy to isolate the trailers. But my friend asked me if I could put them in quicktime format ou media player format so he could put it in the web so people could also get them from a website he is bulding (so people can reserv the movies over internet and then pick up them in the machine). Any ideas on how to get the isolated vobs created with dvdshrink to quicktime or windows media player files ?

Thanks again.
