2 Specify the copy-protection settings, and then close the Build panel and save the project:
CGMS Restrictsthenumberofcopiesthatcanbemadeofyourdisc.ChooseNoCopiesAllowedForCGMStoenable
cascading style sheets (CSS) and Macrovision®.
CSS Encrypts the video data, and then includes decryption keys that can only be read from the original disc. Dupli-
cated copies do not include the decryption keys, so the video remains scrambled. This method prevents playing back
digital copies of protected data. The encryption keys are processed at the replication level, not by Encore.
Macrovision An analog copy-protection scheme to prevent playing back recordings made from DVD to analog
video devices, such as VCRs. Macrovision-encoded data sends electronic pulses to the analog device to disrupt
recording sync, thereby scrambling the recorded image.
Note: Using Macrovision copy protection requires that you pay a per-disc royalty. For more information, contact your
replication service.
Set region coding for replicated DVDs
To control the countries in which your DVD will play, use region coding. Each region code corresponds to a
particular country or geographical region. Often, only DVD players from a specific region can recognize the code
for that region. DVDs coded for any other region will not play.
You can allow all regions to play your DVD, or only a select number of them. Region coding only works consistently
on replicated DVDs. Some DVD players may read region coding correctly on projects written directly to DVD-R,
while others will not. (See “Replicating discs” on page 178.)
Note: The All Regions setting is used for Blu-ray discs and Region Code options are not available for Flash output.
1 Choose Window > Build, select DVD from the Format menu, and scroll down to the Region Codes section of the
DVD Settings.
2 All Regions is selected by default. Select Custom to deselect any number of region codes. When you close the Build
panel and choose File > Save, your settings are saved with the project. The following table lists the available region
codes.
Add ROM content to the disc
Although most projects typically contain multimedia content organized for viewing, you can use the large capacity
of DVDs and Blu-ray discs to archive content or add supplemental content, such as related PDF files or software
applications. You can include additional content on a typical video disc or you can create a ROM-only disc that
contains only archived content (in other words, no menus or navigation).
