When I try to burn a DVD with ImgBurn I get a message that the disc is copy protected:
Copyright protection system type: CSS/CPPM
I've been trying to Google on how this protection actually works, all I could find is that there's some secret sectors on the cd that are used for decryption of the data.
However I'm wondering - how is this enforced (someone has to "know" that those sectors should be read by the secret decryption key) - is this some sort of specification on the DVD drive? or perhaps some specification that the operating system "knows" about and therefor decrypts the data successfully?

@pjc50 - After reading that Wikipedia now I understand that the drive enforces the encryption. I just didn't manage to find the correct Wikipedia until you posted it.. so Please post it as an answer and I'll accept it. Thank you.
