Hi Nektarios, If you are willing to consider DVD ripper programs that are not freeware, you might try the pro version of Metakine's DVDRemaster ($49.99; standard version is $39.99): http://www.metakine.com/ This commercial software is accessible with VoiceOver, and will run about three times faster than Handbrake, as well as providing other features, such as encoding separate audio tracks, and handling multiple language tracks, etc. You could download the trial version and experiment with this for yourself. I'm not much of a DVD movie user myself, but DVDRemaster Pro is the preferred solution for some users on the mac-access list who have converted their DVDs to keep the media on their computers as you outline here. (This includes the list owner of mac-access, who provided feedback to the developer to improve accessibility of what was already a pretty accessible product to start out with.) If you have questions about the program, you could join the mac-access list and pose them directly. Here's the web page that describes the mailing lists and signup procedure for mac-access.net: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/Mailing-Lists.html
