I took a deeper look into this problem. The Perl module dvd::rip uses 
for l10n (Locale::TextDomain) has a bug (unfortunately the author 
doesn't accept this as a bug, instead he claims the whole utf-8 handling
in Perl a bug!). It returns badly formatted data if an utf-8 locale is 
in effect. I just added a workaround which corrects the format again, 
committed to CVS. Please give it a try and tell me if it works for you.
