The best program to use is PQ DVD to DVD Ipod Convertor. I found it on this website from this forum. Sorry I dont have the url but listen look around for it. It is the best program. You can choose which parts you want of the movie and everything.
I know, it's a great program. I have already written a guide for the program here; http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/244629 But thanks for sharing your suggestion, nonetheless
