Launch the 32-bit version and it will mount the DVD and Handbrake will see it as an unprotected DVD and let you convert your disk to let you play it on whatever devices you want. It too uses VLC for libdvdcss, so you’ll need to run the 32-bit version of Fairmount to get it to work. There is an application called Fairmount that mounts protected DVDs as unprotected disks and the latest version comes in 32- and 64-bit versions.

This is a great solution and allows Handbrake to avoid a few legal issues. ![]() Handbrake, rather than containing its own version of libdvdcss requires you to have VLC installed instead. VLC contains libdvdcss, a CSS library that allows protected DVDs to be read. However, there is an unfortunate problem that makes ripping DVDs tricky: it requires a 64-bit version of VLC to be installed, and currently VLC is 32-bit only.įirstly, let’s clarify why this problem arises.
