[Tutorial] Beginner’s Guide to Ripping DVD to MKV [Tutorial]

I know there's a great tutorial (made by Viewsonic) that help us to rip DVD to .avi format. My tutorial under will help you to rip DVD to a high-quality standards-compliant H.264/AVC/AAC/MP4 video

In fact, this tut isn't really made by me, just a great tut that I found somewhere long times ago, now I think it maybe useful.

Well, there's 9 sections in this tut. They are :

Section 1 : The Tools
Section 2 : Rip the DVD
Section 3 : Process the ripped files and extract the audio
Section 4 : Convert the extracted AC3 audio to WAV
Section 5 : Normalise the audio and downsample to 44.1kHz
Section 6 : Convert the audio to AAC
Section 7 : Crop and resize the video and approximate the bitrate
Section 8 : Set the video compression options and encode the video
Section 9 : Mux the video and audio

Note : we need at least 15 GB to do.
