encypted playback works even with java protections
Posted: Mon Sep 07, 2026 2:14 pm
So many of us have experienced problems playing a decrypted backup when facing java based protections, such as screenpass. However, I have now tested vlc with findvuk populated keydb.cfg for screenpass protected discs that I have (well a form related to screenpass, might not be the exact thing that has that name) and can validate that vlc/libbluray play it perfectly now. This might also work great with libmmbd without any need to populate keydb.cfg
So for those that have the disc, you can deobfuscate it manually very easily by simply running
BD_DEBUG_MASK=0x48 BD_DEBUG_FILE=/tmp/bd.log vlc
and play the disc.
one will see the playlists in the log (grep for mpls) in real time (tail -f |grep for instance while its playing).
