  1. Plug in the dvd

  2. Run lsblk to see if it got detected

  3. Run dd if=/dev/cdrom of=dvd.dvd status=progress

  4. You can now play the ripped dvd using mpv: mpv dvd://0/dvd.dvd

If you need to get rid of digital restrictions management, you can try this guide

Yeah, an already ripped DVD or a non DRM protected DVD, which is as difficult as copying files from a USB and why dd works here.

non DRM protected DVD. It’s actually from Disney so I was quite surprised when there was no DRM

If it’s Disney without DRM it’s probably a bootleg DVD
