Canyou take my DVD master and add copy protection?
Strictly speaking, no. Copy protection (CSS and/or Macrovision) for a DVD requires a master supplied on DLT, which has been flagged for copy protection by the author. DVD+/-R media does not support the required flags. If your project will require copy protection we advise you to address the issue with your DVD authoring facility at the outset of your project. Freedom Disc’ authoring services include full support for both CSS and Macrovision copy protection. However, we have been successful in re-authoring some customer’s DVD projects to include copy protection. We do charge for this service, and in most cases there are no cost savings over our normal DVD authoring rates. While the image quality of the supplied video is retained, we must recreate all the programming functions and recreate menu highlights, and as a result we cannot guarantee your new master will be identical to your source DVD. This service should be considered a last resort.
