I've used Handbrake to convert DVD to MKV before. It however doesnt support DivX/XviD nor the AVI container format. Works great though for MKV and x264

and also, another thing, does this take the main movie and convert it into one video file, or will it be split with the chapters? for FairUse? and Handbrake?

With FairUse you have the option. eg: for movies I don't split, but when converting my sons dvd (eg gummy bears) it's nice to have each episode as one file.

Also try Divx Pro 7.2, It will convert to divx, divx 480p, 720p & 1080p or the super small mkv HD Plus. It will convert straight from the DVD Disc if it's not copy protected. Get anyDVD to decreypt before converting.

I have used Handbrake on Linux but when you convert it with Handbrake, then you cant play it on DVD players that support DivX....so now I use K9Copy with the XVID codec. Works like a bomb and it plays great on my al cheapo DVD player :) K9Copy only for Linux though.

Auto-Gk is the best...

This site is a homepage for THE tool for DivX / XviD backup utility. With support of DVDs, MPEG2 (such as DVB captures and transport streams), MPEG1 sources along with AVI/DV sources encoding into your favourite MPEG4 format was never as easy as now!

Program features support of:
- DVD/VOBs(unencrypted from hdd), MPEG2, MPEG1, transport streams (including multi-program ones) and AVI/DV input sources
- XviD or DivX(5/6) output formats
- AC3, DTS, PCM, MPA input audio tracks
- AC3, DTS, MPA, CBR/VBR MP3 output audio tracks
- two audio tracks in AVI
- external (vobsub) or internal (burnt-in) subtitles (with support of forced subs)
- HDTV input/output resolutions(upto 1920x***) and frame rates (50/60fps)
- automatic crop and resize based on compressibility of the source to achieve best results
- automatic detection of input source: PAL, NTSC, FILM, HYBRID
- automatic deinterlacer and IVTC
- automatic split into CD-sized chunks for main video and external subs
