As vlc proved before, you can be open and play drm protected content. Some countries make it illegal, but France doesn't so I'd be happy to have such device.

- jonas21 7y agoThe VLC docs say "VLC, like all open source media players, cannot play [DRM] protected files", so I always assumed it wasn't possible without stripping the DRM yourself. Does it work now? [1] https://wiki.videolan.org/Digital_Restrictions_Management/ https://wiki.videolan.org/Digital_Restrictions_Management/
- m-p-3 7y agoIt does strip the DRM on DVDs out of the box, and there are ways to add support for AACS decryption (Blu-Ray).
- marcosdumay 7y agoAnd content providers do not directly support vlc. As log as you reverse engineer stuff, you can support DRM on anything (at least in most countries), but do not expect it to be a successful platform. We really need reasonable copyright laws.
