Best FREE tools for ripping DVDs to iPod, Sansa, Archos or other media players

I personally use the following tools to convert my DVD collection to smaller compressed version for media players. Personally I own a Sandisk Sansa e270, Orange C600 smartphone and Sony PSP.

All of the above devices only play videos encoded in certain ways.

I recommend the following tools:

  • AutoGK (Gordian Knot)
  • DVDFab Decrypter
  • Video9 (for Sony PSP only)
  • It bugs me that people spend $25 on some shady tool sold online that does a worse job than the tools above. Worst of all, the tools are mostly repackaged versions of open source tools! Arrrgh!

    Tutorials on how to use the tools will follow shortly.
