I ripped a dvd with mactheripper and used ffmpegx to convert one of the vobs into a pretty large video file using the native mac dv codec. I also tried converting the vob with mp4 compression and it came out much smaller with really good quality.
I'm also still messing around with mac compression and it's definitely a HUGE difference from PC editing..

The thing is that he is limited to Final Cut Express, though. It's like Photoshop Elements, but with Final Cut. It's more or less a middle ground between iMovie and Final Cut Studio that doesn't have the strong compression tools that FCS has.
Also, MacTheRipper will not rip copy-protected discs, unless there is some sort of workaround that I don't know about (and if there is I would LOVE to hear it).

Oh really? I do admit that I ripped up a backup disc of something I already had, but never realized that... this definitely won't be good when I have to use my actual discs...
