Linux.com reviews Thoggen: Thoggen is a new DVD ripper/backup-tool for Linux that encodes video into the free Ogg Theora format. Unlike its rivals, Thoggen is easy to use, and its built-in support for the Theora codec instead of the patent-restricted MPEG-4 and derivatives makes it worth looking at.

Because thoggen is slow as

Because thoggen is slow as stated by its author himself and as far as I am concerned because I want subtitles and because Thoggen has frozen last night on my computer... I like the kiss concept but when the output is not what you want in the first place, it's better to have parameters to move around...

Anyway, both (Thoggen and bitterbpp) seem to be worth trying
