Hi,
I would just like to point out an inconsistency in the libdvdcss api.
On http://www.videolan.org/libdvdcss/api.html it's written that dvdcss_read() returns the number of bytes read, but the actual code returns the number of blocks read (which is more logical anyway).
Another thing: if dvdcss_read() cannot read as many blocks as asked, it will return the number of blocks actually read, but will not decrypt them. Is it really wanted ? I mean, if you read the last sectors of a dvd, you still want them to be decoded ??
PS: the same comments apply for dvdcss_readv()
Regards,
