Making a Various Artist Compilation DVD

[oldshepp]

Hi Guys.

Not having a lot of luck with one. I've accumulated quite a few music DVD's and I'd like to make a compilation of the best songs. I know that Tmpgenc DVD Author makes it fairly easy to make one from various sources, but it doesn't allow for different audio streams.

The problem I have is that some of my discs are 2ch only, some 5.1 etc, etc.

Has anyone found a way to rip songs to a standard format so I can take it to the next step? I'm not interested in SVCD either.

All suggestions, programs, methods appreciated

Thanks
