I’m trying to create a bootable USB flash drive to re-install Mac OSX High Sierra on my late 2013 27” inch iMac (3.2GHz/8GB RAM/ 3TB HDD) running 10.13.6 High Sierra. I found two ways to go about doing this, but I have questions. This is a posting from the official Handbrake forum explaining why libdvdcss is not supported by Handbrake: Handbrake isn't intended to be a ripper. The library that is used for decoding DVD file structures CAN have a third-party library to decrypt the video, and it works a lot of the time, but not always. Libdvdcss is part of VideoLAN project and is used by VLC media player and other DVD player software packages, according to Wikipedia. It's just like a key to the door to let you access to the encrypted DVD without any further ado.

The latest version of libdvdcss is 1.4.3.

On Debian and Ubuntu, you can install libdvdcss via libdvd-pkg helper package:

And by running the following command, which will download, build and install the latest libdvdcss source to your machine:

libdvdcss is available through Git or by browsing the releases.

Unavailable to Install libdvdcss on El Capitan or Later? Why?

We can blame it all on the security technology on OS X El Capitan or later which is called System Integrity Protection. This technology is designed to defend protected files and folders against modifying by unauthenticated software (malware, adware etc.). One protected part of the system is /usr, where libdvdcss should be installed. But SIP will automatically remove libdvdcss since it was automatically detected as unsafe software. Therefore, the installation goes into a failure and you cannot rip copy-protected DVD successfully.

sudo cp ~/Downloads/libdvdcss_1.2.12/libdvdcss.2.dylib
/usr/local/lib/libdvdcss.2.dylib
