Not only that, but do you actually see a DVD logo? Disney movies use
Disney DVD which is incompatible with the DVD specification.
Sony isn't the only maker of DVDs that has goo in them that will confuse
libdvdcss.
In a nut shell, in many places it's illegal to use 'nonauthorized' tools
(like
libdvdcss) to decrypt DVDs for any purpose (including playback). On top
of
that, the underlying tool used by nearly everything that reads movie
DVDs on
FreeBSD (libdvdcss) is unmaintained by anyone upstream, as time goes on
more
and more dvds are released that it either can't decrypt or are able to
choke
it.
It's why I am still keeping WinXP in USB flash drive (2gb) for I can use
AnyDVD and other nice tools for rip DVD movie. Rip DVD movie in
Linux/FreeBSD suck and don't work for me.
Cheers,
Mezz
