Does it work with scrambled DVDs? The CSS key is supposed to be stored in
a separate area that is not available on recordable DVDs.
I'm not dealing with recordable DVDs at all. I'm making backups of my
store-bought DVDs to my hard drive.
I'm not totally clear on how scrambled DVDs work, but I can tell you
that the dd command alone doesn't work, but adding lsdvd at the front
does. Also, my "The Life of Mammals" DVD won't play back in mplayer
or totem, but VLC plays it fine either straight from the DVD or from
the hard drive after lsdvd+dd.
