+# Goals and feature
+
+**Libdvdcss** is a portable abstraction **lib**rary for **DVD** decryption.
+
+It is part of the **VideoLAN** project, which among other things produces **VLC**, a full video client/server streaming solution.
+
+**VLC** can also be used as a standalone program to **play video streams** from a hard disk or a DVD.
+
+
+**Libdvdcss** currently supported platforms are **GNU/Linux**, **FreeBSD**, **NetBSD**, **OpenBSD**, **Haiku**, **Mac OS X**, **Solaris**, **QNX**, **OS/2**, and **Windows NT 4.0 SP4** (with IE 5.0) or later.
+
+## Building and installing instructions for Libdvdcss
+
+See the [INSTALL file](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/libdvdcss/-/blob/master/INSTALL) for full instructions.
+
+
+## Running libdvdcss
+
+
+The behavior of the library can be changed by setting two environment variables :
+
+`DVDCSS_METHOD={title|disc|key}`: method for **key decryption** :
+
+- **title** : By default the decrypted title key is guessed from the encrypted
+ sectors of the stream. Thus it should work with a file as well as
+ the DVD device. But decrypting a title key may take too much time
+ or even fail. With the **title method**, the key is only checked at
+ the **beginning of each title**, so it will not work if the key
+ changes in the middle of a title.
+
+- **disc** : The disc key is **cracked first**. Afterwards all title keys can be
+ decrypted **instantly**, which allows checking them often.
+
+- **key** : The same as the "disc" method if you do not have a file with player
+ keys at compile time. If you do, disc key decryption will be faster.
+ This is the **default method** also employed by libcss.
+
+
+`DVDCSS_VERBOSE={0|1|2}`: libdvdcss **verbosity**
+
+- **0**: no error messages, no debug messages (this is the default)
+- **1**: only error messages
+- **2**: error and debug messages
+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+
+A **mailing-list** has been set up for support and discussion about
+libdvdcss. Its address is:
+
+ <libdvdcss-devel at videolan.org>
+
+To subscribe or unsubscribe, go [here](http://mailman.videolan.org/).
+
+
+When reporting **bugs**, try to be as **precise** as possible (which OS, which
+distribution, what plugins you were trying, and so on).
+
+## CoC
+
+The [VideoLAN Code of Conduct](https://wiki.videolan.org/CoC) applies to this project.
+
+## Licence
+
+**Libdvdcss** is released under the **General Public License**, ensuring it will stay free, and used only for free software products.
+
+## Resources
+
+
+The [VideoLAN web site](http://www.videolan.org/) is a good start for
+information about MPEG and DVD playback.
+
+Have a look at the [support section](https://www.videolan.org/support/) to look for answers.
+
+You can also have a look to [the documentation](https://videolan.videolan.me/libdvdcss/).
