What is DVD CSS?
DVD-Video has four complementary systems designed to restrict the
DVD user in various ways: Macrovision, Content Scramble System (CSS),
region codes, and disabled user operations (UOPs).
Many DVD-Video titles use content-scrambling system (CSS)
encryption, which is intended to discourage people
from copying the DVD disc. Usually, users need to install DVD player
software provided on the DVD or downloaded from the Internet such
as WinDVD, PowerDVD, MPlayer, or VLC to be able to view the DVD
disc in a computer system. Without descrambling first, any digital
copy of the DVD disc will be ruined and unplayable everywhere, including
computers. The CSS has caused major problems for the inclusion of
DVD players in any open source operating systems, since open source
DVD player implementations are not officially given access to the
decryption keys or license the patents involved in the CSS. Proprietary
software players were also difficult to find on some platforms.
However, a successful effort has been made to write a decoder by
reverse engineering, resulting in De-CSS. unscrambled and (as an
extra feature) region-specific DVD to be copied as an all-region
DVD. It also removes Macrovision, CSS, region codes, and disabled
user operations (UOPs).
