Easy DVD to some streaming format

I have a ton of Disney movies I'd like to put on my WHS so I can stream to the living room TV for the kids.

I had imagined putting the DVD in the computer, running some program were I can click one or two buttons, and out pops a divx or avi file or something that I can store on the WHS for streaming.

Instead, I read through websites until I have no idea what is going on. I have DVD decrypter to get a copy of the ISO, DVD Shrink to prune off the extras and junk that is not the main movie file, then I have to have yet another piece of software to convert THAT to the final file. What a pain in the butt.

Is there a one-click way to do this? I'm okay with commercial software recommendations.

There aren't many one-click solutions, because of the legal issues surrounding DVD decryption. One I've seen but never bought is DVDFab.

Otherwise, once the ripping is done, e.g. with DVD Decrypter, Auto Gordian Knot is an easy way to do the rest.
