Nice to hear. But can you please give a more detailed description of the
problems with the resize-settings? I can't fix bugs I'm not aware of ;)

Yes. Use the program dvdrip-tet (tet = task execution terminal). It's a
command line frontend for dvd::rip transcoding (probably for other tasks
as well, later):

  Usage: dvdrip-tet [-p file] [-d level] [-l] [-t task] file[:title] ...

       -p preferences filename (Default: ~/.dvdriprc)
          A new file is created, if it doesn't exist.

       -d set debugging level

       -l log output instead of fullscreen output

       -q be quiet, no progress or log output at all

       -t task to be executed
          * Transcode (Default)

Example:

  dvdrip-tet project1.rip project2.rip project3.rip

to transcode three projects one after another (the last selected title 
will be transcoded).

If you like to transcode different titles of the same project, use this
syntax (here title #1, #2 and #5 of file project.rip):

  dvdrip-tet project.rip:1 project.rip:2 project.rip:5

The program isn't documented yet (apart from mentioning it in the 
Changes files), because the development branch in general has no updated
documentation...
