You know that message when you rent a video that says somthing like, "you may spend 5 years in jail and pay a fine up to $250,000". Well then, to people that rent dvds and burn them, is it possible to be caught? When you decrypt an encrypted dvd and return it, can they tell? I find these as the unavoidable questions around the question 'what is to stop somone from burning everything their local videostore owns?'

Welcome to the Digital Digest Video forum Bebop01!
That would be piracy and this forum doesn't condone piracy."When you decrypt an encrypted dvd and return it, can they tell?" -
Mam,
With all respect and admiration, I must inform you that any unauthorized copying of a dvd is actually piracy and hence punishable via our beautiful justice system.
I only use a dvd burner to back up dvd's that are wearing out which I have previously purchased or to burn videos I have made. However, my question is for the sake of better understanding the limits that somone with these poor intentions might have.
Yours truly,
Bebop01Comment

First of all, its not "Mam". Its "Sir". Due to the intellectual property act and fair use act, it is legal to make 1 backup copy of the media you rightfully own.Comment

while copying dvd's that are not yours truly is the sign of the devil, the answer to your question is no.

People who publicly ask, on forums such as this one, for help to rip their rented DVDs have a better chance of getting caught than those who simply rip and say nothing. But, since columbo999 is similar to columbo666, he possibly knows first hand what "a sign of the devil" is.Originally posted by Bebop01

what i know, as i suspect you should, is that a rented dvd is no different that one that is bought. we have all seen this come up here before. nowhere have i implied that i participate in such activity or advise it. period."One day men will look back and say I gave birth to the 20th Century".

Perhaps Bebop's question would have been better put in General Discussions.
But certainly no-one could ever figure it out if you did it.
@jmet - don't take the gender thing too hard - it's that stupid av that does it.
