I need to convert DVD to WMV file or another format acceptable by Windows Movie Maker (video is going to be edited on windows machine). What software should I use?

Yes and I've been confused with command line options, what should be set to get video compatible with Movie Maker? – Zuker Jan 9 '13 at 16:08

It seems VLC would be a suitable tool for this. In VLC, press Ctrl+R (or Media / Convert) and choose DVD for reading and "Video WVM + WMA (ASF)" as the output format.
This should do the trick, although I don't have access to any windows machine, not the the software you mention...

I've got the following error "VLC could not open the encoder.". But anyway thanks for help! – Zuker Jan 9 '13 at 16:17
