Obviously Lotus Notes ships a programm called "convert". As well 
ImageMagick has a so called program and dvd::rip makes use of it.

When dvd::rip probes for the required external programs, it calls them 
to grab their version information. That's why a Lotus window is opened 
on dvd::rip startup.

dvd::rip makes no assumption of the installation path of ImageMagick's 
convert program. It justs executes it without any full path and relies 
on the PATH environment variable.

So as a workaround: modify your PATH in a way that ImageMagick's convert
is found before Lotus' convert, e.g. by putting /usr/bin/ in front 
(resp. the path, where the ImageMagick programs are installed on your 
system):

  export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH
  dvdrip

Now everything should work. You could make a dvdrip.sh file with the 
both lines above, and start this instead. As well you shouldn't care 
about having /usr/bin twice in your PATH ;)
