I have a mission to rip a subtitle from a DVD. My laptop is Ubuntu Feisty Fawn and my favorite tool is mencoder. In fact, I have never done something relating to subtitles before. However, mencoder should be able to satisfy me as always.

My command is as simple as below.

mencoder dvd:// -oac copy -ovc copy -o /dev/null -vobsubout output -vobsuboutindex 0 -slang en

Well, as a result, I have output.idx and output.sub right now.
