DVD rips are hardware compliant m8. You can't make a DVD-ROM rip a dvd faster with software. It relies mainly on how fast a particular dvd-rom can rip a movie. Some are slow, some are blazin' fast, some are in between.

Anyone tried using DVDx for ripping DVDs? It's a free download (see www.LabDV.com) for ripping DVDs to CD/VCD, but also works for DVDs as well.
I can rip (backup) a full DVD to a .MPG (MPEG 2) file overnight, and then then burn that as a new DVD. Have to keep the MPG under 3GB by using a suitable reduced video bit rate and keep the screen size to 720 x 486.
