"Same thing"?  Those aren't comparable.

Visual Hub does *not* have CSS-decode in it.  It can't take a typical
off-the-shelf DVD and do anything sensible.  Perhaps that's the "scrambling"
you're seeing.

Handbrake *does* have the CSS-decode in it.  That's *all* it knows how to do:
take a CSS-encoded DVD and rip out a program.  It *cannot* take an arbitrary
video and convert it to anything.

They're precisely complementary, and completely *not* interchangable.

Perhaps that's your confusion.
