About the INFO button
Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM)
CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media on
which it is recorded. It is supported by some DVD recorders,
but not by many DVD players. Each blank recordable DVD
has a unique 64-bit media ID etched in the BCA. When
protected content is recorded onto the disc, it can be
encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria) cipher derived from
the media ID.
During playback, the ID is read from the BCA and used to
generate a key to decrypt the contents of the disc.
If the contents of the disc are copied to other media, the ID will
be absent or wrong and the data will not be decryptable.
