DVD/Margi Problems
Date: Fri, 18 May 2001 10:12:36 +0100 From: Philip G Spencer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: DVD/Margi Problems I've just got a new Margi DVD-to-Go card to go with my Freecom Traveller DVD-ROM for my L100. Initially, I couldn't get any sound out, but installing L110 drivers fixed this. (I assume L100 and L110 use the same sound hardware). Video play was perfect, though the sound was fairly poor quality. Anyway I wanted to try player software that was more fully featured. First I tried PowerDVD, but I couldn't get it to recognise the Margi code so it tried to do software decoding. Next I tried WinDVD. Again it wouldn't recognise the Margi card. However shortly after starting it, WinDVD crashed. After a reboot windows started acting strangely with 1-2s freezes every 10-15s. I uninstalled WinDVD (leaving the shared DLLs in place, but foolishly not making a note of what they are). Now windows recognises the PCMCIA card (in the card app in the icon tray), but the DVD-ROM doesn't show up in Explorer. The original (working) Margi player software now hangs the machine. I've tried reinstalling the DVD-ROM drivers with no luck. I assume WinDVD modified some Windows CD/DVD-ROM drivers and that's screwing up my system. Has anyone else had this problem? Any advice about cleaning WinDVD out of my system? Does anyone know what junk WinDVD has left behind on my hard drive (especially those shared files I kept). The windows 98 (1st edition) tool that restores system files thinks that just about all the windows files have changed since the initial install, so that's not much help without knowing what files to restore. Any ideas? Please? I really don't want to do a full Windows reinstallation (I just did that about a month ago and it took me ages to get everything working OK). I get digest postings and I'm going away for a few days (wanted to take my L100 to watch a few films), so if anyone has any advice or answers to they please send mail to me personnaly as well as the list.

Yes, DMCA is bad. However, there is a difference in terms of the Copy Protection. You can't burn a duplicate disk that easily, since the stuff available on the market is DVD-R General. You'd need the DVD-R Video disk to be recognized as one that the CSS descrambler should be used on. Ideally, you're right. Realistically, it's the same issue that early generation CD players had with CD-R's, where you have to pay an absurd amount extra per disk to play it anywhere (and not really anywhere, either, since many recent devices aren't CD-R capable, such as single laser DVD players) And it *is* copy protection. It's been taken to a sickening extreme, but it's copy protection. Good luck using the media that you paid for, right? Without backup capabilities, we're kinda stuck at the moment. That said, I'll be ripping my DVDs to DivX over time, and backing that up on hard disk, CD-R, and tape. NO, IT IS NOT COPY PROTECTION If is were, then you would have NO trouble copying a non-encrypted DVD to a DVD-R (and playing it back). I don't know that much about DVD-R, but the issues you mention have nothing to do with the encryption!!! The encryption is NOT processed in the DVD-ROM player, thus you could potentially make a DVD disk that is an exact copy of the encrypted disk (whether a drive or medium exists to make this copy on I don't know enough to say, but I know that it is possible to read the encrypted files off the DVD-ROM in the encrypted format).

That person could also play those files from their PC (with the appropriate DVD software or hardware). Where is the copy protection??? Copy protection would involve doing something that would make it impossible (well difficult) to create a duplicate of the original DVD disk (similar to the way this has been done with protected software in the past).

It does affect your ability to edit the DVD material - which is a different issue. Also, consider this: Even the PC players were not *meant* to allow what we've been discussing. Just because it's been bypassed doesn't mean it's suddenly legal. Now, I'm not going to say that the law is right, because that's another issue altogether. PEOPLE WAKE UP!!! This and DMCA is all a PLOY by the movie industry to allow them to do PRICE FIXING. Most other businesses (MS included) would find themselves in court for this. Why is the movie industry able to do this kind of PRICE FIXING and not find themselves in court (well actually, this is, in some regards, in court in that the constitutionality of DMCA is being challenged)??? I never said it wasn't about price fixing. However, that's not the only issue. It's also about copy protection. I still don't see anyone making copies of these movies that we can play in a DVD player with the same quality video and 5.1 channel audio. VCDs don't match that, and affordable DVD copying hardware simply doesn't exist. The very nature of CSS was to protect the data from being copied. So they blundered. It doesn't stop their initial intent. Macrovision was added to ensure that the stream couldn't be dumped to VHS. That too can probably be bypassed. Again, not their fault. CSS was *intended* to be hard to break, if not impossible. It failed. That doesn't make it open season on DVDs without any legal repercussions. Granted, the DMCA protects the poorly devised protection schemes in a somewhat insidious way, but that's besides the point. We all know it's a bad law. Now, if you want to talk about price fixing on DVDs, why don't you mention region coding? *That's* the part of DVD technology that enables price fixing so readily. It might be a part of CSS, but it's not all of it. If it were only about region coding, then why encrypt it? PLEASE SEE: http://www.digital-digest.com/nickyguides/piracy-info.htm More information provided to make all of this seem ok. It's not. If you want to make a difference, we have to handle this from the legal aspect, not by shattering the industry and flooding the 'net with DivX copies of every film known to man. Once the DMCA is repealed (which will have to happen,) we'll have a lot more breathing room. That said, I think we've strayed too much from the topic of the Libretto

I thought we were talking about encrypted DVDs, ne? I used that to illustrate the point I was trying to make. That one could also copy the encrypted data files on a DVD-ROM just as easily (not that I am advocating this). You do not have to decrypt the files to copy them! It *is* impossible to create a duplicate disc without special hardware and media. It simply won't descramble on a home deck if you use a DVD-General disc. The fact that it might be costly to get hardware and media (at least for now) that will do this, does not change the fact that it can be done. Your argument is simply saying that the media is the copy protection, not the encryption. If the media and recorders become reasonably priced (as happened with CD-R), you will quickly see how meaningless your argument is. I am sure that the MPAA knows this and that is why they are doing everything they can to paint a false claim that this is copy protection. Sorry, the facts just don't support this claim. Once copied, the DVD player is quite happy to do the decryption for you when it plays back the copy. So where is the copy protection? Answer: the encryption does not offer any! Think about this. The encryption offers some access protection (for price fixing and distribution control by MPAA, etc. ...) but it offers NO copy protection. The MPAA is just trying to sell you and everyone else on this so that they can justify it's (CSS) existence and the need for a law to protect CSS (and thus use it for price fixing). As I original said, I am not trying to do anything illegal. It is not illegal to copy, for personal use, the encrypted files from the DVD-ROM disk, that I own, to my HD. I am not decrypting them, the DVD player will do this when it plays back the video. I am just trying to find out what (legal) hardware and/or software is available (if any) to do this so that I can play back the HD copy of the DVD on my Libretto 100CT. It really should not be that complicated and sorry for getting off topic. I really would like to do this. Just trying to find out how - legally.
