Greetings,
I recently attempted to put some of my DVD's on my hard drive using Linux and the command:
# dd if=/dev/dvd of=myimage.img
While I can mount 'myimage.img' under Linux as a device and play the DVD just fine, I have not been able to figure out a way to do this under linux with the same image file. Daemon Tools v3.44 will mount the DVD image and everything 'looks ok' as in the files are there and the correct size, however various media players won't play the mounted DVD. DVD Decrypter alerted me to the problem as it shows the DVD as region 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 'no' copy protection instead of what it should be (region 1, CSS/CPPM).
Can anyone explain why Daemon Tools won't mount this image correctly? I'm fairly ignorant about the DVD format.
Thanks,
Tim
