Abstract

The digital optical storage device that is currently supporting high definition format is Blu-ray disc. Blu-ray disc, mostly preferred by major Hollywood movie studios to store their high definition content is protected from unauthorized access, by digital rights management technology. Digital rights management restricts the use of discs by imposing several encryption techniques in which Advanced Access Control System, Blu-ray disc+ are among them. In order to remove the protection, many ripping tools are available in the internet. Instead of paying for the softwares, a method of removing protection from Blu-ray is explained here. In this paper, decryption and streaming of Blu-ray video on MAGIK board is accomplished using the libraries provided by Videolan organization. The MAGIK (Media Accelerated Graphics Innovation Kit) board is a computer on module based on NXP’s i.MX6 processor. Dynamic link libraries are obtained by cross compiling the VLC libraries. Finally with the help of these DLL’s, Blu-ray decryption and playback is accomplished.
