Ditto. (Suse 10.0)  I'm looking at Dumbo which has been stuck on 99.21% most 
of the day while I was out.   I did this yesterday and the same thing 
happened then.   When I first ripped the movie I noticed it took dvd rip a 
looong time to get the list of DVD chapters and it took dvd rip (or was it 
vobcopy?) an inordinately long time to start ripping.  As far as I can tell 
looking at the VOB files all the movie was ripped start to finish.  IF I kill 
dvd rip and all the leftover processes hanging around, the AVI (xvid4) file 
is viewable/playable in its entirety down to the closing credits -- except 
that you can't skip around or fast forward through the movie.  This suggests 
to me that the indexing is what is getting hosed.   I guess this may be a 
by-product of some convoluted copy protection scheme.  Several other Disney 
movies I own have similar copy problems or worse.

KDE System Guard tells me several child processes from dvd:rip are still 
hanging out doing nothing useful.  Excluding the several sh processes these 
are the program/versions below:

dvd::rip 0.52.6

transcode -h
transcode v1.0.2 (C) 2001-2003 Thomas Oestreich, 2003-2004 T. Bitterberg

tcdecode -h
tcdecode (transcode v1.0.2) (C) 2001-2003 Thomas Oestreich

tcextract -h
tc_memcpy: using sse for memcpy
tcextract (transcode v1.0.2) (C) 2001-2003 Thomas Oestreich


Given the difficulty I had getting dvd:rip to work, I'm reluctant to install 
any upgrades to these programs in the fear I'll end up in one of those mobius 
dependancy loops.
