Indeed that's the key. You could try to generate the logfile by 
yourself. Just execute:

  tcdemux -W -i /foo/vob/001/file.vob > /foo/tmp/foo-001-nav.log

  (replace foo with your project name/path)

and see if dvd::rip is satisfied with this. Never tried myself, but I 
think it *could* work...

If this mplayer hack actually works it's worth a feature ;)
