  • please note that you can copy the entire DVD into a USB DOK, and use VLC to open the DVD folder in the USB as DVD

  • I didn't refer to dd, If you open the DVD you'll see that it holds several directories with files, you can try to copy those directories into a USB stick, and use VLC ->Open DVD to play the content from the USB

Please make sure to follow this instructions in order to enable support for commercial encrypted DVDs before using any conversion tool.

When done you can use the great Handbrake for ripping/converting to MP4 MKV. Handbrake is free, reliable and very user-friendly, for the most part intuitive, but slower than many paid software for Windows. he official website link is FYI only. The software is now available directly at the Ubuntu repositories.It can be installed with Ubuntu Software or, in terminal: 

sudo apt-get install handbrake handbrake-cli
