I imagine it's due to the fact that decss libraries are illegal in the United States. If you'd like to install something on your system that supports decrypting DVDs, you'll need to look for something that allows that which is legal in whatever country where you are using your system. I've seen some stuff online specifically how to do this with MythTV, but I live in the United States so I'm not allowed to install it.</DIV></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>-Brad</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><BR><DIV><BR><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"> <DIV class="OutlookMessageHeader" lang="en-us" dir="ltr" align="left"> <HR tabindex="-1"> <FONT face="Tahoma" size="2"><B>From:</B> mythtv-users-bounces@mythtv.org [<A href="mailto:mythtv-users-bounces@mythtv.org">mailto:mythtv-users-bounces@mythtv.org</A>] <B>On Behalf Of </B>Trey Thompson<BR><B>Sent:</B> Wednesday, June 06, 2007 6:16 PM<BR><B>To:</B> Discussion about mythtv<BR><B>Subject:</B> Re: [mythtv-users] Copy DVD to ISO from command line<BR></FONT><BR></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class="gmail_quote">On 6/6/07, <B class="gmail_sendername">Brad DerManouelian</B> <<A href="mailto:myth@dermanouelian.com">myth@dermanouelian.com</A>> wrote:</SPAN> <BLOCKQUOTE class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid"> <DIV style="WORD-WRAP: break-word"> <DIV><SPAN class="e" id="q_1130317a5d152471_1"> <DIV> <DIV>On Jun 6, 2007, at 3:03 PM, Trey Thompson wrote:</DIV><BR> <BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"> <DIV><SPAN class="gmail_quote">On 6/6/07, <B class="gmail_sendername">Brad DerManouelian</B> <<A onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:myth@dermanouelian.com" target="_blank">myth@dermanouelian.com </A>> wrote:</SPAN> <BLOCKQUOTE class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">On Jun 6, 2007, at 1:16 PM, William Munson wrote:<BR><BR>> Michelle Dupuis wrote:<BR>>> I still use Windows (AnyDVD) to transfer my DVD's to ISO's.
