[mythtv-users] DVD Ripping ?

The op said he wanted it in one file...  Would it work to just do dd
if=/dev/dvd of=outfile.iso?  I have done this many times with CDs and
it works well.  It makes an iso file that can be mounted with the
loopback, or just played directly.  I don't know how it would work
with a UDF dvd.
