To get DVDs onto PC, Mac or Synology NAS, you'll need a third-party DVD ripping software to get the content off the DVD disc as a protection-free and easily readable element.

Guide: How to digitize DVD
Note that the guide below uses Mac Ripper for Windows screenshots. The way to finish your task on Mac is almost the same. Just make sure you've downloaded the right version.
1. Get the DVD source
Load the DVD into your Mac and launch the Mac DVD Ripper. The software needs you to select your video source. Navigate to your DVD and select it. Now it should appear on the left pane. Meanwhile, you can select your desired subtitle and audio track.
2. Output settings
Click "Format" to select an output format. You can either choose MP4, MOV, MKV, FLV, WMV, AVI, MP3, WMA, OGG, etc. as the output format or select the icon of a device/software to get videos with optimized settings for a certain device/software like iPhone, iPad, iPod, Xbox, etc.
3. Tweak video and audio settings
Click Settings icon, it lets you make adjustments to the video settings. For example, lowering the frame rate can help reduce the file size. You'd better keep the balance of your video quality and video size.
4. Start ripping DVD on Mac
Click "Convert" button to start ripping DVD movie to digital video on Mac OS X. After conversion click "Open" to find converted movie on Mac. Enjoy.
