Dvd Encrytion

[zzNyQuilzz]

i know dvd decryptor decrypts the encryption is there any way to re encrypt the data??? cuz i have a friend who is not so bright with computers and he has a dvd burner but i back up all his original dvds because he always scratches them up he is very clumsy. but i dont want him to make illegal copies of the backups i give him so is there any way to implement erros on the backup disc so it cannot be copied??? he doesnt have dvd decryptor or smart ripper he only has nero and easy cd creator. can someone help me out because he already sells bootleg cds but i dont want him to sell bootleg cds then them trace it back to me for giving him the original backup. any help would be appreciated

About the only advise I could offer on this, is you might want to remove yourself from the equation. I can understand you wanting to help your
friend and all, but if there is the possibility of him selling what you have, in good faith, backup'ed for him you can be at risk in a legal respect (I would guess, not a lawyer here).

However, since you did request info on 'protecting' the disc(s), you might want to check out the following, might get you started off on the right track.

if he's not bright enough to back up a dvd to begin with, which is pretty basic, i doubt if he's bright enough to do anything else with it.

Nobody makes a DVD Re-Crypter? Maybe you could contact the MPAA and see if they can point you to what they use.

DVD-R/W and DVD+R/W do not support CSS encryption keys. Currently this type of encryption is only available on factory pressed DVDs. From what I've read, the DVD+R standard may support CSS keys in the future, but as of right now what you want to do is impossible.

very creative story. if he has a dvd burner then he should be able to make his own backups using DVD Shrink, it only takes a few clicks.
I smell rotten fish when I read your "story". methinks you don't want him making extra copies of the work you did and having him sell them to his friends instead of letting you get the profit by allowing you to sell the "backups" to more people besides your friend.
I know I "could" be wrong. But the probability that I am correct is MUCH higher. Say what you will...but between you and me, I know what's up.
