So I recently got my Hands on an old Panasonic Toughbook (CF 30) that has a DVD player (it is the only device that is capable of reading Dvds that i own) and now I want to digitalise some of the movies I still got laying around. I gave Handbrake a shot, but it didnt work for me, so now I want to know your recommendations for ripping from DVDs. The thing with that Laptop is, that Its about 19 Years old and still runs on 32 bits, so keep that in mind (I'm running Debian 11.7)

easiest way is to use the convert option in VLC

That works well if you're OK with using default options, not very user friendly the second you want to tweak stuff.
