Ripping a DVD and converting it to SVCD is a long and complicated process. This guide is an attempt to describe this process as thoroughly as possible. It's aimed at DVD->SVCD newbies, but also contains information that may be valuable to experienced rippers who blindly have followed the doom9 guides until now. It is however not aimed at "normal computer users", i.e. people that don't consider themselves "geeks". Don't despair if you run into troubles - you probably will. ;-) If there's a specific problem with one of the programs (or something you don't understand), read the manual. If this doesn't help, search on the net or ask in one of the doom9 forums.
This guide describes the necesarry steps all the way from ripping a DVD to burning SVCD's. There are lots and lots of options in all the involved software that are not described in this guide. If you want to know more about a specific option, consult the manual.
