How can we know whether it’s legal to use libdvdcss or not in our country? Well, in this guide, we would like to make some introduction to libdvdcss and its usage. However, there are regions and countries that regular using libdvdcss is illegal. I have read in various places that in most of Europe use of libdvdcss is legal as a result of competition laws but I am unaware as to whether this covers the UK so I was wondering if anyone can shed any light on this.”įor DVD movie fans, libdvdcss must be a familiar thing since it’s usually used as an assistance for people to play back and even rip DVD discs purchased online. I was wondering as to the legality of this in the UK, I am aware that the law was changed a couple of years ago to exempt the process of ripping content for personal use as a form of fair use (this same fair use right applies in the US as far as I am aware) In the US however using libdvdcss is technically illegal whether enforced or not, this seems clear but what doesn't seem clear is the legal status of this in the UK. Question 2: “I'm a Linux user so in order to play back DVDs on my PC I require the use of 'libdvdcss'. Question 1: “Is it illegal to play back DVD discs I have purchased with the help of Libdvdcss on my Windows 10? Why did I always get unhelpful caution like ‘using libdvdcss to copy legally-purchased DVDs may be illegal in your country’ or some such? How can I know whether or not it’s legal to use Libdvdcss upon DVD discs I have purchased for personal use? Please help me with this.”
