I'm surprised I haven't seen this posted yet - but from google-ing around I found there is a new encryption method being used on some of the latest movies. This seems to prevent libdvdcss (1.2.8) from working.
Just thought you might want to know why "MythDVD/Rip" doesn't work on some of the latest movies.

But, uhm, if libdvdcss fails, doesn't that affect playback as well as ripping? If not, how so?
Do you have a link or two to the story? What did you search for?
Is this just the new Macrovision RipGuard protection you are talking about? Link: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/02/15/macrovision_ripguard/
This is not a "new encryption" system. They would not be able to change encryption algorithms otherwise all existing players would stop working.
There is a new Sony encryption. It started around The Forgotten movie release, I think there was one movie right before that. It has been cracked on the Windows platform already. Don't know anything about Linux. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/154963
