Nero Recorde is a stand alone product (ie, you don't need a full Nero Suite) to rip DVD's to "Nero Digital" (MP4 format) in one programme. Only works on non-copy protected discs, understandably, which from a dvdcam should be. Takes a while to do it as it's ripping and re-encoding at the same time, but works nicely.
