I got a bunch of DVDs my local library was getting rid of and there are a few very obscure ones that I would like to archive. However I am unsure how to get the data from the DVD into a shareable format what’s the easiest way to do this? Thanks!

Besides Handbrake, MakeMKV is great for ripping the DVDs to MKV, then you can convert to whatever you want with Handbrake (if needed).

Would this work with TV show DVDs that have several episodes on a disk?
