Okay, I've tried the three free ones I know of to rip a DVD with a lot of chapters with no luck. Handbrake just crashes, MacTheRipper reports bad sectors on the DVD, and Mencoder just plain won't do it.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Yeah: Clean the DVD.

And if that doesn't work, get some CD polisher and fix it.

It is clean.

Use some of the more capable tools available on Windows (AnyDVD, DVD Decrypter, etc).

Or don't buy media from people who don't want you to use it as you see fit.
