Recently using the latest version of DVD rip I learned that sometimes the transcode button is greyed out. Through brilliant deductive reasoning I decided to do the following google search. "DVDRIP transcode button greyed out"

Up came a great link. DVDRIP where I learned that sometimes you need to either cancel the project by Mashing the red X button or closing the DVDRIP program at the GUI (Save the Project first) and then reopen the project.

The author provides us discusses some other neat features. This time around I tried the subtitle feature and it worked pretty well.
