Sometime ago i posted this:

-----------------------------------------
Im doing all the processing with Windows,
hope it helps nevertheless.

First split the *.vob-files to video and
audio with vstrip from (www.maven.de).
Adjust vstrip to set the output video-vob
to 25fps and aspect ratio of 4:3 to keep
anamorphic ratio.

Then convert the *.ac3 audio-file to mpegII
audio with tmpgenc 
(http://www.yks.ne.jp/~hori/index-e.html).

At last multiplex the video *.vob and the
generated *.mp2 audio file with tmpgenc.

If its needed (e.g. if you want to store 
the resulting files on a ext2-fs) you can
split the outcome with mpgsplit (small prg,
dont know where i got it).

Then use genindex (see topic) to generate
the needed index.vdr. As i mentioned this
works, but ff/rw is without picture.

This is my way to convert dvd to vdr, i'm
sure there are other ways to go respectively
you can use other programms to do the 
conversion.
