DVD Decypter sometimes comes up as a positive on malware checks, but
some of the sites that carry it are actually infested with malware
carrying versions. It also allegedly has certain behaviours that trigger
spyware/ trojan warnings, but I don't use it, so I'm not fully aware of
what these are.
DVD Decrypter fell foul if the Millenium DRM acts in the USA, so the
developer dropped it. (As`far as I'm aware)

Lets me download version 2.524 as a free, unrestricted MPEG1 version
with a 30 day limit on availability of MPEG2 encoding after
installation. This is the version I've been using for ages now. It has
no limit on length of output file in MPEG1 format.
I have had problems with later versions, though.

However, the DVD2SVCD bundle processing only falls over due to the lack
of a video encoder *after* it's extracted the audio files;-)
