    Try this program. It has a free trial so you can test it for yourself but to get a full functioning copy it is only $30 – well worth the money as it comes with lifetime upgrades.

    I recently tested-out 7 different programs to convert PAL DVD to AVI and they were all pathetic, with the exception of this one. What made this program stand out was simply that it had a DV AVI codec available, while the rest had really old and heavily compressed codecs for AVI. To be fair, the other programs were more designed to rip DVDs to DIVX and other portable formats.

    Please note that it works in both NTSC and PAL and did a pretty good job of converting from PAL to NTSC.
