I have never owned a dvd and probably never will (I have a bunch of cdroms' in the closet, though), but I've come across vobcp/vobcopy to get the video data of a dvd. I would imagine you'd find a solution with gstreamer. The best would of course be that jack would handle video, but I guess a dvd device can't be reliable enough for realtime use so you would still have to first cp the data of the platter. There is an option to use xvidcap[1], of course, then edit it with mencoder (-ss/-endpos) or a video editor. For this task, you're probably best off with rip'ing the dvd and opening it in a video editor;).
