1.1. Video Deinterlace: the default setting of 'Video Deinterlace' is off. If you wanna your output DVD file with progressive scanning, tap 'Preference' > access to 'Video' > manually change Deinterlace into 'On'. Plus, it also offers you with deinterlace mode e.g., Discard, Blend, Mean, Linear, Film NTSC(IVTC), etc.

1.2. Hardware Acceleration: It's officially claimed that VLC supports hardware decoding with 'Video Decode Acceleration Framework (VDA)'. However, its default setting is 'Automatic', which actually doesn't go into action in real DVD ripping. Though the positive influence of hardware decoding is quite limited, it would be a little bit better to quicken your DVD conversion speed. After all, something is better than nothing. Hence, you're suggested to set up HW Accel. to VDA.
2. Edit Selected Profile.
2.1. Encapsulation: normally, MP4 might be your primary choice due to its wider compatibility. Yet, there are still other great video formats available if you know one or two about them. AVI wins a wide wave of popularity because of its high quality and multiple subtitles/audio tracks supported. OGG dwarfs others with high compression efficiency. MPEG 1 overshadows others thanks to its remarkably high quality. Hence, if you wanna keep as high quality as possible, AVI and MPEG 1 are worth your consideration (VLC can support them for playback on macOS). In case output video uploading is the target, OGG sounds great.
