You have two choices:
  1. Assume tablet-encode is all set up wonderfully and do: tablet-encode dvd: D:\myfilm.avi - this should find the DVD, auto-detect the best thing to rip and stick myfilm.avi on your DATA drive.
  2. Test with a video file first to check tablet-encode is setup correctly: 1) Find some random video, such as Standard_MPEG-2.mpeg; 2) Download it to your computer; 3) Follow the instructions above; 4) Test it on your N900.

Opening the dvd using explorer offers me Audio_TS or Video_TS - do I want one of those? If I choose something from the video folder, will I still get the audio?
In addition to supporting dvd: to mean "the longest track on the DVD", you can use MPlayer's dvd://title to choose which track to rip, or even point it straight at a folder containing AUDIO/VIDEO_TS, e.g..E:\ in your example (so you should be able to drag the drive icon, but I've only got XP to test with).
