Handbrake and Copy Protection

[likemyorbs]

Don’t you need to break the protection in order to rip (or at least encode) the video?
And I use Netflix, is it okay to rip a DVD to put it on my iPod and then send it back. I usually watch it before the next DVD comes in the mail, and I just delete it after I watch it.

Why even bother deleting it after you watch it? just keep the damn movie, and while you're at it burn yourself a copy ftw

I don’t need to keep a movie that I am never going to watch again.

Sorry, I meant in the sense of a different ripping program that would alter the DRM in a way that would cause the DVD to show obvious signs of ripping.

how would software that copies the files make a physical DVD show "signs" of ripping?

Lordy. You do realise that DVDs with feature films on are read-only, yes? So how on earth is a DVD going to "show obvious signs of ripping", given that ripping simply involves putting the DVD into a drive just like you would if you were just going to watch it?

I was just experimenting to see if it would work. Never watched Jumper and now I don't think I will. Now I personally didn't think Edge Of Darkness was too bad, but that's a personal preference.

Jumper was fine as long as you just enjoy the ride. Type of movie you don't want to think to hard.

Cheers,

How do I DELETE handbrake??? I dragged the file to the trash but it keeps saying it is in use! (when it clearly is not!)
