Have you ever been in such a dilemma that when you play a backup disc of a Blu-ray movie on your PS3 or other Blu-ray players for entertainment then something unexpected and unpleasant happens -- the audio of the Blu-ray movie gets muted or it just stops playing, and you see a message on the screen tells you that the content being played is protected by Cinavia and is not authorized for playback on this device. What happened?
The Cinavia thing mentioned in the message code is a new protection that consists of a multi-level watermark embedded in the audio tracks for movies in theaters and on commercial DVD & Blu-ray discs. Statistics from Blu-ray association show that, as of now, 452 commercial movie discs (373 Blu-rays + 79 DVDs) are released with Cinavia protection, including the Manchester by the Sea, Fifty Shades Darker, Patriots Day, John Wick: Chapter 2…

Cinavia requires two parts to work: a proprietary imperceptible audio watermark, and a piece of hardware which is able to detect that watermark. When media with the watermark embedded in the audio track is played back on a system with Cinavia detection, its firmware will detect the watermark and check that the device on which it is being played is authorized for that watermark. If the device is not authorized, a message is displayed stating that the media is not authorized for playback on the device and that users should visit the Cinavia web page for more information. Depending on the device and firmware, once the message is triggered, the audio may be muted, or playback may stop entirely.
If you copy a Cinavia-protected DVD/(4K) Blu-ray disc to another blank DVD/Blu-ray disc, or convert it to popular video formats like MP4, MKV, AVI, etc., without removing the Cinavia watermark. While playing the copied disc or converted video file on Cinavia enabled home Blu-ray players, such as PS3, the playback will pause and audio mute, at around 20 minutes into the movie. As stated in the message code, don’t try to adjust the volume, because it won’t work at all. If your playback device does not have a Cinavia detector, then you are lucky. However, according to Blu-ray Disc Association, as of February 1, 2012, the Cinavia technology became mandatory to all Blu-ray disc players.
