  blu ray burning with copy-prevention feature

  Posted by Ron Ressler on July 18, 2013 at 2:09 pm

  Hello everyone,

  What DVD software/burners do we have out there for burning “copy-prevention” blu-ray disks?

  Whether is macrovision or some other version of protection is fine with me. I would like all recommendations from the least expensive to the most expensive. Does DVD Architect offer it?

  Thanks,

  Ron

  What are you trying to do, copy a BluRay video that you have, or are you trying to burn a BluRay and add the anti-copy feature?

  Hi Dave,

  Thanks for your response. I am creating a video to sell to a specific vertical market and I want to be able to burn copies as I sell them WITH some form of anti-copy protection.

  What are the options for me to ADD anti-copy to “my own”
  blu-ray DVDs?

  Thanks,

  Ron

  ” and I want to be able to burn copies as I sell them WITH some form of anti-copy protection.”

  Old question (since floppy discs), same answer. No.

  There are no copy-protection methods for burned DVD or BluRay media. Replicators can add the childishly simple Macrovision CSS to a DVD, and the slightly more robust AACS on Blu-Ray discs, but you have to pay a $5000 license fee per title. But Blu-Ray decrypters are popping up as fast as new copy protection schemes pop up.

  Bottom line – If I can see it, I can copy it.

  As Stephen said, copy protection is added by duplicators. You can’t do it with a burner and there is no point in using it since anyone can copy any DVD or Blu-ray with free software available on the Internet.
