Um, why don’t you install VLC instead, then use it to rip the DVD’s into large raw files. At that point, you can then use handbrake to properly compress them to suitable size.
There is an export function under the file menu for VLC that gives a lot of options for type and coding.

I have to open and start the DVD in VLC and then Handbrake it will find it in its scan. What it does find shows as pixelated in both the preview as well as any rip it makes for me. I've tried a handful of the presets and no matter what I chose I get the same pixelated output.
