Getting around this is a weirdly gray area legally, so applications like Handbrake can’t legally include the software needed to decrypt copy protected DVDs. Out of the box, Handbrake can rip any DVD that isn’t copy protected…but almost all DVDs you buy in the store are copy protected.

dev/disk1 on /Volumes/DISK_NAME (udf, local, nodev, nosuid, read-only, noowners)Īnd then run csstest: $. First, find where your DVD is mounted on (make sure you have a disk inside the computer): $ mount If you want to test it there's an application named csstest inside the test directory. Once the download finishes and you are inside the directory, executing these commands should compile the library successfully. If you check their homepage, you'll notice they recommend downloading the sources directly from their SVN repository: svn co svn:///libdvdcss/trunk libdvdcs The first step is downloading the most recent version of the library. I'm currently using Mac OS X 10.6.7, and just to be clear, libdvdcss must be build from the cmd-line. Anyway, I tried the following and everything worked ok. Even though some messages might get you worried, some of these headers are not important for the Mac system. This is what I got when building the library. yesĬhecking for IOKit/storage/IODVDMediaBSDClient.h. yesĬhecking IOKit/storage/IODVDMediaBSDClient.h presence. noĬhecking IOKit/storage/IODVDMediaBSDClient.h usability. noĬhecking sys/scsi/scsi_types.h presence. noĬhecking sys/scsi/scsi_types.h usability. noĬhecking for /sys/dev/scsi/scsi_ioctl.h. noĬhecking /sys/dev/scsi/scsi_ioctl.h presence. noĬhecking /sys/dev/scsi/scsi_ioctl.h usability. configure deceive you: checking dvd.h usability.
