Any advice would be appreciated.</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/copy-protect-my-dvds-#post-35940 Fri, 11 Apr 2008 18:46:07 +0000 TheDVshow 35940@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> DVD authoring software like Sonic’s DVD Producer, Adobe Encore DVD and others have copy protection built right in.</p> <p>DVDs produced by consumer authoring programs are not protected, so that anyone<br /> with a DVD burner can simply copy the entire thing onto another disc.</p> <p>“CSS” stands for Content Scrambling System, which is the method used to encrypt<br /> files on a DVD and prevent the user from copying the files to a hard drive from a<br /> DVD-ROM drive.</p> <p>Pressed DVDs from Hollywood studios use CSS and Macrovision protection methods,<br /> which sets protection on a track-by-track or marker-by-marker basis in the Track<br /> menu, but there are many programs available that will copy even these protected<br /> DVDs with one click using a CSS decrypter- not worth it in my opinion and<br /> Macrovision is an expensive option.</p> <p>If you want the copyright on your work to be observed, practically speaking, my best<br /> advice is to maintain a good relationship with your customers. Also use well-designed<br /> packaging, disc surface printing, cover art and inserts to support the idea that your<br /> original DVD is something of value to be respected.</p> <p>A few technical tricks is to make ghost or un-referenced files on a DVD - all you have<br /> to do is import the mpeg2 file into your DVD authoring program and add it to the<br /> project but don’t point anything to it - add random dummy files making it much<br /> harder for those who use ifo editors to see which program is the actual presentation.<br /> Import a blank 720x480 .bmp and make it act as if it's a movie - but make them<br /> unreferenced.</p> <p> Another trick is to author onto dual layer so it makes it harder to do a 1:1 copy<br /> All this is very easy and NOT really time consuming at all.</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/copy-protect-my-dvds-#post-35932 Fri, 11 Apr 2008 15:02:12 +0000 videomike4950 35932@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Does anyone know of a program that can be used to protect my dance recital DVDs from being copied ?<br /> Sales at these dance shows are slipping and I believe it is because some parents are making copies for their friends, on their PCs.<code></code></p> <p>I read VideoMaker magazine every month, but have yet to see anything comprehensive on this topic.<br /> I need software I can use here, at my studio, where I make my master with Pinnacle Studio and burn/print dupes with a Bravo II disc publisher.<br /> I don`t want to send my master out to MacroVision or anything.</p> <p>Can anyone help ? Please ?</p> <p>Thank you !<br /> -Mike</p> <p> </p>
