With this you first need to rip the DVD so you lose a little time there but I often found Handbrake failed to rip correctly or had issue finding content on some DVD's. MTR and Turbo-264 does not have this issue.
you have one up on me having used turbo but I haven't have any problems with handbrake. As its free I would suggest you give it a try as you have nothing to loose. If it meets your needs great... If not go spend your money.
