Re: What's the state of the art in linux DVD movie backups?

Last time I looked was a couple of years ago, and it needed a whole

then there was a GUI that wasn't quite ready... could anyone tell me
what the state of the art is? Do we have anything like the win32
tools that just let you put the movie DVD in and click "go" and make a
copy?

(I am still on FC3 so I'm a little behind the times here.)

1. Boot up wife's windows box
2. pop dvd in
3. fire dvd shrink, anydvd or whatever
4. open disk, backup
5. when the tray pops open insert dvd media
6. forget about the whole thing

Alternatively you can waste a day or two pulling all the command line
tools for linux.
