    Decrypting DVD's protection

    Is there a Linux program that will allow me to backup my DVD's. I know they are encrypted and was wondering if there was a Linux decrypter just like in Windows. Thanks.

    yeah, there are several. I use a command line ripper.

    be sure to install libdvdcss2 first.

    apt-get install dvdbackup

    then run dvdbackup with the following command:

    dvdbackup -i /dev/[dvd]-o /home/[user] -M
    [dvd] meaning your dvd device location (i.e. /dev/hdc)
    [user] your name

    this will rip the dvd straight to your harddrive in an uncompressed format. you can do what you like with the files (turn into .iso for burning (I use mkiso and then burn the image with k3b to disc).

    for GUI,
    sudo apt-get install k9copy
