Using MacX DVD Ripper Pro, encoding is faster than most in its class, the output looks decent, & it works with the original files rather than recording video playback. Trimming is done in the preview windows to clip video segment I favor. With the DVD copy protection supported, it can rip all my DVD movies as advertised.
