DVD Shrink should be no problem, linux has truly amazing transcoding tools,

do what DVD shrink does in linux, it may require a couple of descrite tools 
but the end results are possible. I don't believe there is a single graphical 
tool like DVD Shrink but once you get use to command line tools they rock 
anyway.

And if none of those take your fancy, you can alway have a go at running DVDShrink 
with WINE or XOver.  They're applications that intercept Windows API calls and 
translate them into Linux API calls.  They're not perfect, but they're pretty damn 
good.  Although technically not "emulators", many people think of them that way.  
Windows Emulators... sort of.
