    Man, you must have some great home movies. No-one would want to copy mine.

    If your home movies are this desirable (are they porn by any chance?), maybe you should pay a commercial pressing service to make them for you. Commercial pressing services could at least put Macrovision and CSS on them, which would mean that someone would have to know how to decrypt your DVD and remove Macrovision before they could copy it. It certainly wouldn't stop everyone, but it would at least stop the people who know nothing from being able to start Nero and do a "DVD Copy" option on your disc because that will only work on DVDs that aren't CSS encoded and don't have Macrovision.

    Lock them up. The only sure way. Ask the MPAA

    See if you can decrypt his test DVD in that thread using popular rippers.

    His beta program is no longer available - I suppose he sold it to someone (possibly the people who are making the corruption on the latest German DVDs, as it looks a lot like that).

    There are other ways that also do not involve bad sectors or cell commands that are extremely simple to implement and will fool most rippers.

    I did. No really, I did.

    But then, I use the IMDB bottom 100 as a shopping/sourcing list. I also happen to own Eegah on DVD. You now know not to come to movie nights at my place.
