Hi people, since we see more and more complaints regarding old movies being not politically correct anymore, I am getting more and more concerned about some purchases I made some years ago. Specifically, there is a set of local movies in my mother tongue which I bought and therefore want to download them in case they are removed/changed later on. How can I do that?
Linux cmdline tools preferred, sharing is no consideration, so I am not concerned about digital fingerprints.
Not sure specifically about Amazon but there’s always the hole between the video cord and the monitor where output is unencrypted. Do these movies not have a purchase and download or DVD option out there?
It’s usually not unencrypted though. You need a special device to defeat the encryption (HDCP).
You don’t. That encryption was cracked long ago and your average HDMI splitter will bypass it completely.
They are from the 90s, so DVD would be my plan B. However, that would take significant effort to hunt down, so I wanted to check other options first
