DVD ripper

DVD ripper is a computer applicatian for copying the content of protected DVD on your hard drive. DVD ripper is able to let you choose what parts of the DVD movie should be copied to a DVD recordable.

DVD ripper is targetting DVD movies, protected with the Content Scrambling System (CSS), a protection developed and adopted by the Hollywood Studios. It simply protects them from pirates who want to make copies to sell. Simplified the protection encrypts the data on a DVD and requires a special key to decrypt it. DVD playing software developers have received such a key from the studios and therefore their software is able to read the information, but unfortunately the studios don't hand out keys to anyone else.

DVD ripper is the software that has beaten that protection. Most of the DVD ripper applications are based on the software DeCSS of which you might have heard due the many lawsuits that try to forbid the software. The DVD ripper software is illegal in many countries. Removing the DeCSS protection and getting the movies to e.g. a hard drive is mainly referred to as ripping. Besides CSS movie sometimes also contain a protection developed by Macrovision, this is also on many VHS tapes, DVD ripper software that is able to remove CSS, will also easily remove this Macrovision protection.
