[SOLVED] shouldn't a key in KEYDB.cfg be enough?

Post by jemima »

Hey.

I have a UHD BluRay for which the SHA1 of AACS/Unit_Key_RO.inf already has an entry in the well-known KEYDB.cfg file.

Shouldn't that be already enough to play it with e.g. mpv? I mean without the need to process it with MakeMKV or similar first?

But mpv complains about an unknown file format so I presume decryption has failed (while that works for normal blurays).

Thanks,
Jemima

I think I might have found the answer for why it didn't work. Since it's likely no Linux issues, I posted my assumption (asking for confirmation) in a new thread in the general forum.

Thanks
