K9copy which is a front end of Vamps, has possibility to rip(compress and burn) DVD to Mpeg4/MP3 2 channel stereo data compression. 6 channel sound maybe beyond k9copy to be kept.

As all codecs need updated, with newer movies encoded to newer DVD format, which may have special encoder library; the new DVD format can not be encoded to Mpeg4 by k9copy.

But some older DVD movies still have blocky(older compression scheme) displayed after encoded by k9copy. Still maybe able to be used in media storage of hospitality industry and its ipTV set-top box?

It is encouraging, that some assurance is here, that Mpeg4/h.264 can be done at all. K9copy does have you select the size of the movie. But it can support aspect ratio conversion for HDTV.

Footnote:
If black bars show up, another program can be used to permanently eliminate them in display.

Older blocky data compression left over in K9copy, may be due to the computer used for k9copy rip is too slow to wait for data decompression, then encoded into Mpeg4/h.264?
