1 This is just a wild guess, but could the decryption keys be stored in
2 the DVD drive? Playing the disc with mplayer retrieves the keys (using
3 libdvdread) and sets them in the drive. From that point, the disc is
4 readable by all means. When you change the disc, the keys are not valid
5 anymore.
