How to Remove Unskippable Anti-Piracy Ads, Region Lock, and Encryption From DVDs

Almost all movie DVDs begin with an FBI warning telling you that it’s against the law to copy and distribute the DVD. Then comes 5 minutes of anti-piracy advertisements and trailers of movies soon to be available on DVD. These advertisements play every time you play the DVD and they cannot be skipped. Pressing the fast-forward button or the menu button on the DVD player remote often restarts the advert from the beginning, as if to chide you for trying to skip the important message.

Unskippable anti-piracy ads that play at the beginning of a DVD is a loud slap in the face of the buyer – a reward you get for legitimately buying the product and giving them your money. A loud slap that reminds you that you wouldn't have had to sit through the annoying FBI warnings and trailers if you had never bought the DVD. It’s short sighted lunacy to insult customers who actually buy the product with offending messages. It’s also pointless, as the people who download a copy of the movie never see the message, anyway. Yet, movie studios continue to do it, and then wonder why people pirate.

If you still buy DVDs but hate the ads, the first thing you should do is rip the movie, remove the ads, and region locks if any, and burn it into a DVD to watch it in your DVD player. Store away your original DVD, or better yet, sell them on eBay. But how do you rip only the movie while skipping the anti-piracy ads? BDlot DVD ISO Master does it for you – everything, from decrypting the movie, to removing region lock, CSS copy protection and unskipabble ads, and then burning the result back into a blank DVD.

BDlot DVD ISO Master is a freeware that can backup any DVD to an ISO image file. It can save regular and encrypted DVD to ISO without support from a third party DVD decrypting software, as it has the ability to remove both DVD region codes and other DVD protections like CSS, CPRM, CPPM, APS, UOPs, ARccOS, Rip-Guard, and Disney X protection. It can also burn ISO file to CD/DVD/Blu-ray disc. It supports a wide range of discs including CD, DVD5, DVD9, BD25 and BD50, etc.

BDlot DVD ISO Master does not compress the movie. Thus, the ISO file created is the same in original DVD file size, and contains the original high-quality video and 5.1 surround sound.

Just launch the program, select the source DVD, name the target ISO file and click the Start button. All DRM removal options are selected by default. It takes just 5 to 10 minutes to backup an entire DVD in ideal conditions. Once copying is complete, remove the DVD and insert a writable blank DVD, click on the ISO to DVD tab in the program and burn the ISO file created in the first step to the blank DVD. In another 5 to 10 minutes your DVD should be ready, a DVD that doesn’t force you to watch anti-piracy ads and which you can play the way you like it.

  1. Thank you.

    I was looking for free decrypting software to store my DVDs into my HD as ISO files, so I could watch them with WDTV and really thought, there is no such software for free until I found your article.

    I tried anyDVD which has a free trial version for 21 days, but after that you need to pay. It also only decrypts the DVD. To store it as ISO, you need to install additional software.

  2. About your comment: "Store away your original DVD, or better yet, sell them on eBay". If you do that then you are a realcriminal. Remember the more pirate copies that are made, the less money there are to make new movies. Do you know how much it cost to do a movie? From idea, to consumers? But just let your car keys be in your car, or keep you house open, because I guess that you also think it is ok, that every body just uses your car, and house for free and fun. Happy new year

How to Record CPU and Memory Usage Over Time in Windows?

Whenever the computer is lagging or some application is taking too long to respond, we usually fire up task manager and look under the Performance tab or under Processes to check on processor utilization or the amount of free memory available. The task manager is ideal for real-time analysis of CPU and memory utilization. It even displays a short history of CPU utilization in the form of a graph. You get a small time-window, about 30 seconds or so, depending on how large the viewing area is.

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website. However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.
