General

ProtectBURN is today’s leading copy protection system for recordable Video DVDs in terms of effectiveness, compatibility and ease of integration. Four of the leading six Hollywood studios trust Protect Software to protect select titles against copying and ripping. Also Protect-BURN is used to protect Oscar nominated titles and perform screener distribution of pre-release movies.

Implementation

One of the big advantages of Protect-BURN compared to other solutions is that it does not require any authoring changes. Existing or newly authored VideoDVDs can simply be protected by using the Protect-BURN software package.

Compatibility

ProtectBURN has been designed for 100% compatibility with both stand-alone DVD players/recorders and also software players. We provide independent third party compatibility reports from multiple companies that show there is no difference in compatibility between a protected and unprotected title.

Effective Protection

ProtectBURN is the most effective DVD-Video copy protection available. Unlike other copy protection solutions, there is no generic tool to copy ProtectBURN protected titles.

Protect-BURN effectively secures your Video-DVD against 1:1 sector copy approaches, ripping attacks and other tools that combine different approaches.

Protect-BURN is a new structural copy protection that effectively frustrates people trying to copy protected titles. Protect-BURN can be used with and without CSS/Managed Recording.
