Anti-piracy small scale - Club CDFreaks

qbert · 21-04-2004

I am a small producer of a little video, and I want to stop most users from copying my video. I am looking for inexpensive copy protection.

My question is:

If I use DVDXCOPY to make my 'customer copies' from my producer's original, how good actually are the anti-piracy measures built into its DVDXCOPY series of software, specifically they have:

-- An embedded bit flag that prevents making a copy of a copy using DVDXCOPY.

I spoke to 321 Studios tech support and they can't tell me if this "embedded bit flag copy protection" will stop a person from copying my video using another copy program like RecordNow or some other copy program, although they say that it will stop someone from making a copy using XCOPY. If it only stops a pirate who uses one brand of software copying program, then it's not worth me using.

Does anyone know how I can inexpensively protect my video from being copied (not foolproof, but decent protection)?

Wrong forum. Copy Protection Discussion Forum is about defeating copy protection, not creating it. Moved to the correct forum.
