it's been mentioned about mencoder, but dvdrip is a good GUI if you
aren't comfortable with CLI (but i encourage you to! it's a little
frustrating at first, but DEFINITELY worth it).

that said, i believe mencoder (dvd uses mencoder as a backend) had an
audio issue in ubuntu. which distro are you using?
