I am trying to find decent alternatives...

DVD Decrypter is still free. It just isn't developed or officially distributed any more... but a Google search should give you several sites to download the last version (3.5.4.0) from.

Two of the programs I mentioned, TMPGEnc Plus and DVD-lab Pro, aren't free (the free version of TMPGEnc has a 30-day time limit for MPEG2 encoding). There are freeware alternatives, of course -- check out Doom9.org's software page for a list of freeware MPEG2 encoders, and you can use DVD Author with a graphical frontend to author basic DVDs (though you'll want more sophisticated software for more sophisticated menus).
