Mplayer can do it, you can also use transcode and you can use vobcopy.

I'm very familiar with transcode and got good results. I use transcode also to 
reduce the file size quickly. 

1) Copy Movie to harddisk and extract audio (my computer can do both in one 
step with good performance) with tccat|tee|tcextract
2) Extract Video stream with tccat|tcextract
3) Reduce filesize of Video if necessary with tcrequant
4) Remultiplex Audio+Video with mplex 

Now you have a mpg file with max. 4.3GB size. You can play it or you can do 
the next steps:

5) Create DVD structure with dvdauthor
6) Burn DVD with growisofs

There are probably other good solutions. I dont use mplayer to rip DVD's, but 
I'm sure that it can be used.
