Concerning Copy Control Signals
TV broadcasts that contain copy control signals may have
one of the following three signal types, Copy-Free, Copy-
Once and Copy-Never. If you want to record a copy-once
type program, use DVD-RW with CPRM in VR Mode and
DVD-RAM.
Once “Copy Once” has been recorded, additional recording
cannot be performed.
This * marked parts are compatible with CPRM.
- 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.
