  4. yes it also contains all of the decryption keys, so if you have to re-rip a disk , it does not have to re calc the decryption.....

    MPlayer also caches it Decryption keys in this same fashion.

    Bozo....

    So does VLC, right?

    Are those keys the same? i.e. for those w/ an unflashable RPC-2 drive, could the VLC keys be used to mtr a disk instead of dvdbackup one?

    Yes, VLC (and I believe mplayer) and MTR all use libdvdcss to obtain the decryption keys. They will all store their keys in .dvdcss in your home directory. This is so that they don't have to recalculate the keys in future operations. MTR runs a script the first time you launch a new revision that erases this directory, as well as the MTR preferences file. If there is demand, it might be possible to add a function to MTR to automatically remove .dvdcss entries upon completion of extraction. It's really not a big deal, as it just shows that you've played that DVD before, nothing more.

    I would like to know why people would delete this file.
    If it isn't broken, take it apart and find out why.

    Maybe because of privacy?

    Paranoia would be a more apt term...

    Privacy from what? Paranoia of what? If you share the computer, and you care what other people see on your account, you should set up another one. If you're scared about the Government searching through your computer for stolen media, you should stop selling the DVDs. Really, do you think that everyone who rent and rips a DVD is going to get caught? Do you think any of them will?

    As for the porn dvd answer, I've gotta ask, why would you PAY for that sort of thing? It's like downloading music, only easier. (and I would be too embarrassed to have these dvds delivered by mail or go and buy them myself)

    Yeah, I should have figured. And I assume it has an innocuous name on the sender portion of the identification too.

    Well, it was information obtained from Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, so make of that as you will. Speaking of which, its a very good business idea.

    Tom : Listen to this one then; you open a company called the Arse Tickler's ****** Fan Club. You take an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, sell it a bit with, er... I dunno, "does what no other dildo can do until now", latest and greatest in sexual technology. Guaranteed results or money back, all that bollocks. These dills cost twenty-five each; a snip for all the pleasure they are going to give the recipients. They send a cheque to the company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five. You put these in the bank for two weeks and let them clear. Now this is the clever bit. Then you send back the cheques for twenty-five pounds from the real company name, Arse Tickler's ****** Fan Club, saying sorry, we couldn't get the supply from America, they have sold out. Now you see how many of the people cash those cheques; not a single soul, because who wants his bank manager to know he tickles arses when he is not paying in cheques!

    That movie rocks. English movies have something so perverse about them. Speaking of which, I just recently found out that anime can be found in non-naked form. Who knew?

    Freud could probably have a field day with that. Oh well, off to watch CSI. I hear this one's about a dominatrix that was murdered.

    Well, I have rented adult dvds myself and it even happens to be gay-variety. No reason to be ashamed because of watching porn

    But have to admit, Internet saves money and downloading porn makes maximum use of bandwidth you pay for. Surfing simply doesn't use bandwidth effectively enough
