>>>Lastly, does anyone know what a "BUP" file is?<<<

IFO files contain the formatting information of the
VOB files, which tells the DVD player exactly how the
DVD should be played (eg. aspect ratio, subtitles,
languages, menus, etc...). BUP files are backups for
IFO files, which are needed if the IFO files gets
currupted. If you rip the DVD without IFO files, then
the VOB files may not play correctly, or may not even
play at all. Similarly for conversion, IFO files are
essential since video converters like FlasKMPEG (which
supports IFO parsing) will need them if you want to
encode videos, or fix multi-angle ripping problems.
