that is encoded on most Blu-ray Disc recordings and DvD recordings. If there is a region

Copy Protection
your BDS system is in compliance with hDcp (high-Definition copy protection), and a

that include a copy-protection code, if the contents of the disc are copied using a vcr,
the copy-protection code prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.
