Did you install transcode including all tools ?
mjpegtools
On my Mhythbuntu 9.04 it works perfect to transcode ....
Is someone other who can not transcode .... ?
Maybe you forgot to install all the scripts to your home directory ?
Are the scripts executable ?
chmod +x dvd2svcdpal.sh as example
I tested the native command and svcd and vcd for pal.
The 2 scripts for ntsc settings are just adapted from the working ones.

edit :
You need a big place to transcode .... you may filled your hd with the transcoding ??
I guess yes ..... the transcode script filled your hd completly ...
the first process that would like to write to disk crashed ....
because there was no space left ....
This would be a explination.
Howmany installations with a linux system you alleady made ?
BTW : This is a just for knowing ... every person startet once with a new system ....
1.) Make a big partition with a very good filesystem like xfs
2.) mount this partition anywhere in your system ... /media/big-mama-partition
3.) edit /etc/fstab to your needs ...
Symlink the partition to /dvdrip
ln -s /media/big-mama-partition /dvdrip
do you have space left ?
df will give you the answer ...
