dvd decrypting on linux?

[Dark Atheist]

is it possible, and if so which tool do you use? can it decrypt some of the latest discs? or should i try anydvd/dvd-decrypter under wine ?

edit - yes i am aware mplayer/mencoder/libdvdcss can do it, but im not sure if they hand the latest encryptions

it will work with WINE 🙂 I followed this

seems its all related to dvd shrink though? i just want to rip the disc not convert it

Might as well use Windows then eh?

hmm im going to buy windows and anydvd just to rip a few dvds - bit expensive don't you think 😀 might just do them on the windows pc and xfer then over gb network 🙂 will have to do that in between renders 😛

Rip with K3b...

Shrink with K9copy...
http://k9copy.sourceforge.net/

Haven't tried these myself but I hear they work good. If you try em let me know how they work.

i havent touched k3b since it started being a tit when burning discs, like i have said i dont want to compress them to copy them to the drive

DeCSS has stayed the same, even on the later disks to watch DVD's. If you want to rip DVD's you can use any of the above forementioned tools, personally I use Handbrake to turn them into a standard format like mpeg4 or matroska.

Stolen from handbrake.fr :

HandBrake is an open-source, GPL-licensed, multiplatform, multithreaded video transcoder, available for MacOS X, Linux and Windows.
