Ripping DVD ISOs with a Mac?

Yeah, the title explains it all. Is there a program that can do this?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Ripping ISOs? As in, creating an ISO image file of an existing DVD disc? Or do you mean mounting an image file of a video DVD and then ripping/decrypting the VOB video streams from it? OR do you mean ripping and decrypting the VOB video streams from an actual disc?

Please clarify, there's a couple different answer to these questions.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Sorry, I didn't realize that.

I need to rip an ISO onto my computer from the DVD and then re-burn it at a lower speed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well now, that's the easiest—no extra programs required. Just use "Disk Utility," which lives in /Applications/Utilities. From there you can select the DVD, and choose File > New > Image from Device... and just create a CD/DVD master (.cdr) image in a location of your choosing. Once it's done you can easily select the newly created image in the sidebar (where it will appear), pop in a blank DVD, and hit that beautiful burn button.

You can, incidentally, also use this program to create compressed .dmg images from folders, password-protected & encrypted images for storage of sensitive data... all of it included with OS X. Gotta love that action.

EDIT: I am, of course, assuming you have OS X of a relatively recent version. If you are stuck on OS 9, then I have significantly less guidance for you (other than find an older version of Toast Titanium and use that).

Cless: do you know if FirestarterFX implemented DVD imaging? I used it way back in the day as an OSX equivalent to Alcohol 120% for copy-crippled CDs, but I had never tried it out on a DVD.

Otherwise, if Onyx has a copy of Toast, it has support for making image files as well. The Disk Utility is really a great way to go, though, and a great volume-manipulation tool in general.

I was speaking idiomatically.
