A variation of

mencoder dvd://1 -o outfile.avi -oac pcm -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=mjpeg:vqmin=1

will create an avi file with pcm sound and MJPEG video. Bear in mind that this 
conversion, as the subsequent conversion back to MPEG2 for the DVD, will 
degrade the quality for each step. It would be beneficial if you could use 
gopchop or a similar MPEG2 cutting tool instead. You may be able to use the 
fabled YUV support in recent lavtools, which then would lessen the losses from 
MPEG2->MJPEG->MPEG2 to just MPEG2->(lossless YUV)->MPEG2, but I don't know how 
or if it works.
