Convert DVD to MP4 file?

Is there any free software that I can use to convert DVD to mp4 file. I received a DVD but no longer have a DVD player. Just an older laptop with a DVD drive. With this I wanted to convert the DVD to an mp4 file. However, I only find software that costs money. Mostly around 40 euro. But it's not worth it for a DVD. Are there any free alternatives? On the whole portals like Chip it is always advertised as free, but then they cost money. Or you have a watermark in it, which goes over the whole picture, so that the film doesn't bring you anything.

Perhaps someone can tell me a program from my own experience that I can download for free.

Make mkv. First convert to MKV and then convert to mp4 using another program.

What kind of DVD is it? A movie on a commercial DVD or a DVD that someone toasted for you? You won't have any fun with a commercial DVD, most of them are copy-protected and you can't copy or convert them. Except with commercial software, which is banned in Germany because it is illegal.

In the other case it is quite simple, with Handbrake you can convert the film from DVD to mp4: https://handbrake.fr/

Was a commercial film, actually an older documentary. But it was probably without copy protection and I could convert it without any problems.
