The last(~amd64) k3b version version is not able to rip any DVD, but transcode (v1.1.7) returs error code 1. Running transcode from command line with the same options gives the same result. I am not familiar with the whole process, so I am not sure which tools produces the issue. I am willing to help, if needed!

Which FFMPEG version are you using?
It seems like preset support has actually been removed from ffmpeg. https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-cvslog/2011-August/039925.html However it looks like this was fixed in Gentoo's transcode with transcode-1.1.7-r1. So give that a try if you aren't already using it. Upstream transcode seems pretty dead though.

Thanks Max
I can also confirm it with transcode-1.1.7-r1, albeit via dvd::rip, not k3b. The same bug in other distros: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=681436 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k3b/+bug/1099201 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26208
There are also bug reports in the KDE bug tracker: Bug 274668 - Please move away from transcode, as the project is dead. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274668 Bug 317797 - k3b does not rip DVDs (transcode fails) https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317797
Can you please check if this patch helps? https://launchpadlibrarian.net/184767623/debian-bug-697558- (from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transcode/+bug/1099201/comments/6)
