First of all you will need to get:
XviD Codec
DVDx
Then follow this fairly simple guide:
Afonic XviD DVD Rip guide
This is from the peerweb.org forums. I've done it and it works perfectly -- it just takes a while.
I have a bunch of DVD's and want to put them on my car's HDD for viewing while on vacation, for my gf....
What are the best / easiest ways to transfer movies onto the HDD?

I'd say get a subscription to newgroups and newzbin...it'll be faster to download than convert DVDs to Xvid/Divx... I can download 15 movies in the time it takes me to convert a DVD to Xvid...of course, I'm not suggesting piracy, just download those movies you own of course ;-)

i found some dvd rip thing on torrent. Works great for me. But definately xvid is best codec
I would have to add another vote to xvid. It is the best!
I use DVD Decrypter to rip from DVD in about 12-15 minutes and then use AutoGK to convert to xvid in about an hour and a half.

How big are these xvid movie files?
My first carPC!
MP3/CD player
Celeron 633MHz - 10GB Seagate - 64MB PC100 - Win XP
Soon to actually find its way into the car!
A full length movie around 700Mb sometimes even smaller. And full quality too, not crappy pixelated stuff.
