Decrypt with MakeMKV first.

MakeMKV is a disk ripper; handbrake isn't. MakeMKV will leave you with MKV files that can then be encoded by handbrake.

There are lots of ways to master a DVD. Some rely on the DVD's menu to select different tracks under different conditions. The duplicate episodes may simply be differences in whether subtitles were included.

But, without the logs, there isn't a way that we can answer your question.
