The downside is that this file format is MakeMKV-specific, no other software can read files in this format so far. This format is superior to KEYDB.cfg file format, as entries are smaller, have integrity checking, much faster to verify and have few other good properties. Starting from version 1.10.9 MakeMKV supports additional key format, called “hashed keys”. Unfortunately, when this file format was defined almost 10 years ago, assumptions were made about AACS system that are no longer valid today. MakeMKV (as many other applications) can read key files in that format to decrypt regular and UHD blu-ray discs. From the very first days of blu-ray the de-facto standard for blu-ray disc key management was libaacs KEYDB.cfg file format. MakeMKV contains no AACS2.0 keys, so it requires a disc key to be supplied by the user. Quote Starting from version 1.10.8 MakeMKV can open an UHD disc using a “friendly” drive, provided a decryption key is known for the disc. But I wanted to explore the Blu-ray menu on this particular disc. It took me at least 15 minutes to go through the above, whereas if I had just played the disc with MC it would have worked immediately.
So I had to rearrange PDVD and Chrome so that I could see the code and key it into PDVD, using my IR Remote because PDVD couldn't use the keyboard for input (!) then PDVD let me play the disc.īut DRM is protecting the industry from piracy and saving lots of jobs in the process, with little to no inconvenience to users at all. Nope, that page doesn't allow copying the code. Tried to copy the code so that I could paste it into PDVD. Here is a URL to a page that will give you the code. Nothing would make it find the internet.īut it offered two other ways to get the code that it needed to play the disc. PDVD said it still couldn't play the disc, and that it needed access to the internet to get new disc data to play. It wanted me to upgrade, for a really cheap heavily discounted price (NOT).
On inserting the disc, PDVD told me it needed a patch to support the newer disc.
I decided to watch a Blu-ray using PDVD 16 recently. It is so crippled by DRM, even for DVDs and normal Blu-rays.
