    1. Do other DVDs play without problem in the computer your DVD won't
    play in.
    2. Does your DVD play in another machine?

    Google won't allow the protection method to be looked up.
    I tried a number of times and got fuck all.

    If I try this one

    dvd casino royale protection method

    I get articles describing the ARccOS situation, but that's because
    the issue spilled into the public domain (news stories). Helpfully,
    I even got a lead to a forum. Which the search for INTERSTELLAR
    did not reveal -- there weren't any forum articles at all in ten
    pages of google results. Videohelp isn't exactly the "most evil"
    of forum sites, and some of the other sites have professional
    DVD counterfeiters (make more than a "personal backup copy").
    Those might be DIVX copies of a movie, on single layer media.

    The only Hollywood DVD I have here, all it needs is libdvdcss2. But
    every disc can have something different on it.

    I don't remember all the details, but ARccOS I think, leaves something

    ARccOS immediately after that, on new releases.

    If I try this one

    I get articles describing the ARccOS situation, but that's because
    the issue spilled into the public domain (news stories). Helpfully,
    I even got a lead to a forum. Which the search for INTERSTELLAR
    did not reveal -- there weren't any forum articles at all in ten
    pages of google results. Videohelp isn't exactly the "most evil"
    of forum sites, and some of the other sites have professional
    DVD counterfeiters (make more than a "personal backup copy").
    Those might be DIVX copies of a movie, on single layer media.

    Looks like the internal SATA will be the cheaper way to go.


    2. Does your DVD play in another machine?


    Need to get a Blu-ray player.



    More research required!

    Research first, waste money second :-)

    Make sure the player has playback software.
    Many of them are "a drive in a bag".

    You at least want a player to "reward" your purchase.
    You can experiment with other choices later, once
    you've at least seen the movie.

    You want a "retail" drive that comes with a
    software CD and software to play Hollywood content with.

    I've had to drive to the store, and read the CD contents
    off the side of the box, because the manufacturer refused
    to put the info into web adverts. That's how crappy
    the topic of software content is, with optical drives.
    In the past, some of the drives came with Nero Lite
    (but that's not necessarily a movie player, just for burning).
    I got a copy of WinDVD once, in a motherboard box, and
    didn't notice until looking in some of the boxes one day.

    BluRay uses Java code as part of protection mechanism,
    and has key revocation as well. On Monday you can watch
    a movie, and on Tuesday it no longer works (and will never
    work again). That is what BluRay is like. You can own the
    media, it's official legal media, and... it won't play.

    On Windows, to play 4K BluRay, you need Intel SGX feature,
    which is on 10900K but is pinned off on 11900K and later
    ones. The idea is always to have rendering done in
    such a way, that a user cannot copy the frames out of
    memory. The BluRay may work at HD res, without that.
    It's possible some key handling is done in SGX. Or they
    do the Java in there. Intel had to pin that off, because
    there's an exploit for it.

    There might be only one ripping tool for it, and perhaps
    nothing on Linux. The details of breaking that, aren't likely
    to be public, or for that matter, easily reverse engineered.
    The BluRay people are quite proud of themselves.

    I don't know what the track record is today, but if you
    come to my place, you'll notice there is no BluRay
    player. There's a limit to how much consumer-antagonism
    I'll put up with. The stories about BluRay cross that line.

    You may find threads, where someone bought a drive in a bag,
    and now they don't have a movie player to use with it.

    Look at a Newegg item, then read the reviews in the
    web page, for details of what is missing, or what
    bad thing happened.

    I would buy a BluRay writer, if I needed to do 100GB backups,
    but I don't really want to do that either (cumbersome). The
    price has come down somewhat, on the media. At one time,
    it was too expensive to do backups on BluRay.

    For backup, I got a...

    - Seagate One Touch 5TB Portable Hard Drive with Rescue Data Recovery
    Services

    on sale for ~$90. Love it !!


    BluRay drives can have three lasers, and high numerical
    aperture optics. The feature size is quite small on the
    media, and the optics have to get very close to focus.
    BluRay can have multiple layers, so the optics have to
    change focal point to access those. That might not be shown
    here.

    Thanks, GURU Paul !!

    Sounds like Blu-ray is more trouble than I want. I think I'll stick
    with DVD. Same for Windoze. :-)

    Having DVD playback failure issue...

    Any ideas?

    (snip)

    1. Do other DVDs play without problem in the computer your DVD won't
    play in.

    Yes, I just checked this morning and found out that the loaner DVD is
    actually Blu-ray.  Is a USB external Blu-ray player the best way to go?
      What's a good one to purchase?

    Looking for best bang for buck (quality & price).

    Found a popular internal SATA one that can be installed in my desktop...

    - LG WH16NS40 Super Multi Blue Internal SATA 16x Blu-ray Disc Rewriter

    Looks like the internal SATA will be the cheaper way to go.


    2. Does your DVD play in another machine?


    Need to get a Blu-ray player.



    More research required!

    Research first, waste money second :-)

    Make sure the player has playback software.
    Many of them are "a drive in a bag".

    You at least want a player to "reward" your purchase.
    You can experiment with other choices later, once
    you've at least seen the movie.

    You want a "retail" drive that comes with a
    software CD and software to play Hollywood content with.

    I've had to drive to the store, and read the CD contents
    off the side of the box, because the manufacturer refused
    to put the info into web adverts. That's how crappy
    the topic of software content is, with optical drives.
    In the past, some of the drives came with Nero Lite
    (but that's not necessarily a movie player, just for burning).
    I got a copy of WinDVD once, in a motherboard box, and
    didn't notice until looking in some of the boxes one day.

    BluRay uses Java code as part of protection mechanism,
    and has key revocation as well. On Monday you can watch
    a movie, and on Tuesday it no longer works (and will never
    work again). That is what BluRay is like. You can own the
    media, it's official legal media, and... it won't play.

    On Windows, to play 4K BluRay, you need Intel SGX feature,
    which is on 10900K but is pinned off on 11900K and later
    ones. The idea is always to have rendering done in
    such a way, that a user cannot copy the frames out of
    memory. The BluRay may work at HD res, without that.
    It's possible some key handling is done in SGX. Or they
    do the Java in there. Intel had to pin that off, because
    there's an exploit for it.

    There might be only one ripping tool for it, and perhaps
    nothing on Linux. The details of breaking that, aren't likely
    to be public, or for that matter, easily reverse engineered.
    The BluRay people are quite proud of themselves.

    I don't know what the track record is today, but if you
    come to my place, you'll notice there is no BluRay
    player. There's a limit to how much consumer-antagonism
    I'll put up with. The stories about BluRay cross that line.

    You may find threads, where someone bought a drive in a bag,
    and now they don't have a movie player to use with it.

    Look at a Newegg item, then read the reviews in the
    web page, for details of what is missing, or what
    bad thing happened.

    I would buy a BluRay writer, if I needed to do 100GB backups,
    but I don't really want to do that either (cumbersome). The
    price has come down somewhat, on the media. At one time,
    it was too expensive to do backups on BluRay.

    BluRay drives can have three lasers, and high numerical
    aperture optics. The feature size is quite small on the

    Try and figure out what you're buying with THIS drive :-)
    I can't figure it out. You can imagine some street vendor
    selling these in some dark alley.

    Beware of SCAM artists. They have machines up the wazoo to sell.

    As for Blu-ray, I'm sticking with DVD as long as possible. Unaware, I
    inserted a Blu-ray disc in my DVD player, which had trouble ejecting it
    (even a paper clip in the pin hole couldn't eject the Blu-ray disc, an assertive slap on top of the DVD player worked though :-).
    Laptop complained about blah-blah ioctl device. I don't recall the
    exact message. Can't even find the message in /var/log/syslog now.
