I personally wouldn't use AutoGK for this. VirtualDubMod is probably the easiest to get to grips with. You'll need a lossless codec (e.g. Lagarith) as well.

Load the VOB into VirtualDubMod, go to Video->Compression, select Lagarith, and configure it to use YV12 colorspace. Select Audio->none (as you will be loading your demuxed/decoded audio separately). Then save as AVI. Do not change any other options; the output AVI will be exactly the same quality as the original DVD.

Moth3r, I'm working on a short edit, and I wanted to give the lossless route a go, since I've purchased a new hard drive. I am having some issues though with the AVI. My VOB is NTSC 16x9 anamorphic, with a framerate of 23.97. When I save the AVI using the methods you have suggested above, it gives the video a framerate of 30fps. Obviously, its a little out of whack. Is there anyway to manually set the framerate on this. I tried some other lossless codecs with the same result (btw, Lagarith does a nice job at keeping the file size a bit smaller).

Thanks :)
