Handbrake works well for me (not tried DVD43 - I used dvd decryptor).

Manually selecting the correct title and chapters should allow you
to get at other episodes on a DVD which has more than one.
And for foreign language stuff, Handbrake lets you "bake in" the
appropriate subtitles.

Very handy for watching my DVDs while away from home.
