Hi,

There is a free program called autogk in the software section.

http://rita.lt/guides/AutoGK_DVDtoAVI.htm check the website out as you may be able to do what you want...also I will say be prepared to use DVD Decrypter to rip to your hard drive and use autogk on your ripped files. Process will take about 2 hours total depending on your system specs.

You do not have to re-encode the Files to Change the Aspect ratio you can use a Simple Program Like "DVD Patcher" to Change the Aspect ratio Header in the VOB Files to 16:9 and then Just re-author the VOB files back to DVD, this way there is no re-encodeing and No Quality Loss and it will only take a short time to do as Compared to re-encodeing the File....

I believe you can do a Simular thing useing "AutoGK".....

Cheers

Well when you re-author the VOB files back to DVD you will have the Option to Change the Menu or add menu"s and Chapters ect ,Just use a Good Authoring program to author the VOB files back to DVD and then you can do this without re-encodeing or any Quality Loss or wasteing a Bunch of Needless Time.....

Any DVD authoring Program should work...I personally use "MediaChance DVDLab Pro" which is one of the better DVD authoring programs out there....

So what I would do is First Rip the DVD to your Hard Drive as a Single Big VOB File, You can do this with DVD Decryptor by setting the "File Splitting" settings to "none"....

Then I would Load the Big VOB file into "DVD Patcher" and Patch the Headers for the whole file to 16:9....Then Load the Patched VOB file into DVDLab and add your Chapters and menu"s and scene selections ect, and then it will format it all into a "Video_TS" Folder which it then Burns to DVD for you OR you can use something like "Nero" to Burn the "Video_TS" folder to DVD in "DVD Video" Mode.....

Cheers
