We have a corporate DVD that we no longer have the source from around the office, and we'd like to take the ripped Video TS folder and convert it into a small file. I know there must be topics on this here, but I haven't been able to find them. Does anyone know the best way of doing this? I appreciate it, thanks!

Apple-mp2-plug-in (20$) + Mpeg Streamclip (www.squared5.com, free)...
it allows many export options, resizing, different codecs etc ...
more "flexible" then HB ...

Mac The Ripper (free) + ffmpegx (free) also provides more encoding options, more codecs, etc.

But Handbrake should be fine for what the OP wants to do.
