Rip dvd that is not ISO9660

Hello.
A family member has some old family videos in a dvd, and I wanted to rip it for myself. I have tried using dd, which produced an ISO that I couldn't get to work properly (I mounted it and it was never successfully recognized as a media DVD). Using SimpleBurn I discovered that the cause is an error output saying:
"Error: no ISO9660 formatted media in drive"
I haven't been able to create an ISO that would work with this. Basically I want to create an ISO that I can play in my home theater media player, or mount in the computer and watch in VLC or mplayer when I want to.
Is there a way I can convert it to ISO9660??
I also tried using VLC to convert the DVD to a simple video file, but I was left with no sound (used VLC and I think the setting was youtube sd quality).
Any help greatly appreciated as I will have to return the dvd soon and I really want to keep these videos.
Thanks.
I think they are multisession disks that have never been closed (XP didn't have that functionality).
You could try InfraRecorder to finalize the disks. It's a Windows program, free license. If it works in Wine.

Or you could use mkisofs.
"I have tried using dd, which produced an ISO that I couldn't get to work properly"
dd isn't for making an ISO. It just reads the device. It would be helpful to know more specifics about the DVD in question. What format is it in currently? What is the directory layout (like is there a VIDEO_TS folder, etc.)
I don't know which format it is in. How can I see that?
The layout is of a regular DVD, with video_ts and the vob, ifo and bup files inside. smplayer fails to play it, vlc plays but in wrong aspect ratio. I tried copying the files to a pen drive and was able to play them in my home theater, but the "speed" is wrong (I think it might be because of the frame rate, the movie seems speed up but the sound is in sync).
Apparently the DVD is "udf". Not sure if it is useful.
Have you tried HandBrake? It is in Trisquel's repository.
Thanks! That was a good solution! While it didn't create an ISO copy of the DVD (with menus and such) I did create a rip to a MKV file that played totally nicely ;)
Thanks! Handbrake has just become a tool that I will certainly make a part of my "default install" on the future :)
