You could convert an entire disc but you'd have to make new menus using
ConvertXToDVD for each section and doing selective rips until you could compile a whole DVD. The process would be time consuming to say the least. I used to use and recommend ConvertXToDVD but I can no longer support nor recommend VSO's software due to their disregard for the GPL. There are free solutions such as FAVC & The Film Machine among others to pick from.
Watch the bonus features on your computer and only convert the main movie using a freeware solution if you can't be bothered to get a DVD player that will handle NTSC & PAL. In the end a software solution will take far more time [than it's worth] and never be as good as it could, IMHO, compared to buying a DVD player that can handle both NTSC & PAL. They aren't that expensive.
A software solution is more of a headache than it's worth.
