  Unless you are talking about an HD DVD, the video stream will
be MPEG2.  It will be multiplexed with audio stream(s) and subpicture
stream(s) into .vob  files.

  There are now a number of programs that can read a .vob file
and extract the streams you select.  Most will extract to a DVD
compliant .mpg (MPEG program/system, encapsulation) or .mpv
& .mpa ES files, compatible with a DVD Authoring program.

  My favorite is www.VideoReDo.com

Luck;
