Dear all,
I would like to ask you if there is something like dvd decrypter for linux.
What I want to do is to copy/clone a dvd bit by bit. I do not want though to make an iso just to copy bits.

Hi there,
Why don’t you try K3B? It’s very good.
Just in case, make sure you have
- libdvdcss
- dvd+rw-tools
It all together should do your job.

My bad… What I want to do is to copy a dvd to my hard disk (the external one).
I was using in windows dvd decrypter as it was having the file mode that was copying the files bit by bit.
k9copy
handbrake
I’m still not sure what you mean though
If your read what dvd decrypter is, you guess what he wants.
DVD Decrypter is a software application for Microsoft Windows (including Windows 7 support) that can create backup disk images of the DVD-Video structure of DVDs. It can be used to image any DVD, but controversially it is especially useful for decrypting copy protected movies. The program can also record images to disc. Content Scrambling System (CSS) decrypting software (such as DVD Decrypter and AnyDVD) allows a region-specific DVD to be copied as an all-region DVD. It also removes Macrovision content protection, CSS, region codes, and user operation prohibition. (Wikipedia)
Then just do it. In your file manager (Dolphin) copy entire folder VIDEO_TS (right-click) and paste it in your hard disk.
To watch it just right-click on that folder and chose OpenWith… (I use VLC)
that can create backup ‘disk images’… It can be used to image any DVD,
but controversially it is especially useful for ‘decrypting’ ‘copy
protected’ movies. The program can also ‘record’ images to disc.
‘Content Scrambling System’ decrypting software (such as DVD Decrypter
and ‘AnyDVD’ allows a region-specific DVD to be copied as an all-region
DVD. It also removes ‘Macrovision content protection’ ‘region codes’
and ‘user operation prohibition’

[check out the FAQ]…
i think it is best to pay for the movies you watch…it is the only
honest thing to do.

Agree, but there are still numerous cases where a backup of your own DVDs might be very helpful (even though nonetheless illegal in some jurisdictions).
Most people not interested in paying for movies they want to watch probably don’t copy them by themselves any way. But lets not start a flamewar here.
Anyway, some programs available in linux for backing up DVDs and have already been mentioned.

You can pay for your movies and still want them on your hard disk; it is
quite useful if you watch them while on batteries.
And what is legal/illegal depends on the country one lives.

That is true. But for the Macromedia thing…well I have to admit that the “disclaimer” of Denver was necessary (to avoid frivolous lawsuits). A thread like this, if you do not watch out for the wording may well have been opened with the aim to shade a bad light on Linux or this distribution. This is why I preferred to paste the Wikimedia article, as the thread author in my view was a bit too “vague” for my taste on what he is actually wanting to do.
And I am not suspect of having undue sympathies for Denver, isn’t it.
Backup media you do own is (in my view) a rightful action (and is even granted as a right in European countries).
I use TS Muxer to rip my DVD’s and Blu Rays’s to the hard drive in .m2ts format so I can stream them to my media servers and PS3. Sometimes these files can be over four gigs though and I use a hard drive formatted in xfs for storage as I believe it works better for large file storage. TS Muxer and TS Muxer GUI link.

DVDecrypter will run acceptably under wine. It’s just outdated, as it won’t cover more recent protection schemes.
K3B works well too, it basically removes the same protections as DVDecrypter.

Excuse me for insufficient knowledge but isn’t that the dvdcss lib? If
you install this you can decrypt most dvd’s.
I use handbrake and do exactly that. Never used K3b, it had the
tendency to crash. But the lib is all one needs and the app is the
device to do the rest.
