Sorry, I know you disabled transcode because of bug#360170.
But this is no way a duplicate.

And the current situation is really bad. Let me restate the current problems:
- Ripping VideoDVDs does not work at all
- If you try to do it, k3b tells you to install transcode (which is not
supported, so installing it doesn't change anything.)

OTOH, transcode works fine in openSUSE. Even if it is unmaintained upstream,
distributions/packagers do still support it and keep it working (with newer
ffmpeg e.g.).
So re-enabling that would be the easiest/quickest way to fix VideoDVD ripping
IMHO.
Maybe you could display a warning dialog that transcode is not maintained
upstream and there may be problems...

If you don't want to do that, you should at least change the current error
dialog.
