Unless you mean to rip with, of course.

I have converted several movies from DVD to MPEG - the average time to encode is about 3 hours and 45 minutes. I use DVD-TO-MPEG ver. 2.2. These play just fine in my Zen Vision. Don't know what iPod requires.

Then from MPEG, I can further convert to AVI, MOV, WMV, RM, or VCD with Smart Video Converter Pro.

Or, for the author of the thread, iTunes.
