You can copy protected (encrypted) DVDs to your hard drive with DVD Decrypter. Once you've installed this small application, you'll see that it's very easy to use. Just insert the DVD into your optical unit and the program will automatically detect the content.
You can select the whole content of the DVD to be copied or you can select only IFO, VOB or BUP files, depending on your needs. You can erase disks, synchronize cache, authenticate or change the regional code. You can Import / Export PSL (Protected Sectors List) files so that you can work out the best methods to backup certain 'problem' discs. All operations are logged so that you may get information regarding the operations' settings or the files copied such as length, size, encryption key etc.
In conclusion: A very good free program, extremely helpful for creating backups of your favourite DVD multimedia. The interface is easy to use and appealing, making it suitable for beginners; as for advanced users, they will be able to use the advanced settings available.

What's New in This Release:
· Added: Ability to Import / Export PSL (Protected Sectors List) files (Option is located in the 'File' menu). Users can work out the best methods to backup certain 'problem' discs · Added: Dialog box to remind users to load the MDS file instead of the ISO file - it's good practice and is vital for nice DL burns · Changed: Structure Protection code to find more instances of 'suspect' areas on the disc · Changed: Some of the Automatic 'Transfer Length' code. It now checks for additional possible errors in the output from the API call · Changed: Previous workaround for Plextor PX-712A authentication problem caused problems for old drives that hang on a 'Rezero' command (Status bar always displayed 'Almost Ready'). The command now only runs on Plextor DVDR drives · Fixed: Access violation errors caused by nasty IFO files on some of the newer discs · Fixed: 'Browse' was always visible in the 'File' menu · Fixed: Potential issue with getting the disc size from the ISO9660 file system (only used in ISO Read mode on DVD+RW discs) · Fixed: 'Cracking CSS' dialog box showed very inaccurate progress information · Fixed: CSS cracking was repeating itself on files it shouldn't have been

Worked flawlesly I have tried SEVERAL recommended decryption software. I always had some sort of isse with every one of them. either it would not download correctly, or the interface was too complicated, or it just didn't work, or it wasn't free. This was free and after downloading it, I pushed one button and BOOM! Decryption accomplished. Easy for beginner. There seems to be more advanced features that I have no clue what to do with. So maybe if you are more advancded this could be helpful. This is certainly woth downloading.
Will not use another decryptor... Thank god for the author of this little utility. I say little, only because it uses very little in the way of system resources, therefore allowing me to do other things on my computer without serious lag. Otherwise, it is a very valuable program in my arsenal. Again, thank you for creating this, whomever you are. Flint
