Hello David, You mentioned a couple of things with which I am unfamiliar.
What is this libcss-library? I do not have VLC Media Player on my Mac. Specifically, what must I do in order to get Hand Break to rip commercial DVDs? Based on your reply I think you're suggesting that I download the VLC Media Player to my MacBook and make sure it's installed in my Apps folder. Doing this will automatically install necessary CSS libraries. Is this correct? Next, after installing VLC, I should install Hand Break. Assuming I have the above in the correct order, how do I make sure that hand break knows that the VLC libraries are available? Perhaps this is done automatically? Finally, is it necessary to have both the VLC Player and Hand break running at the same time in order to rip a DVD? I appreciate any help on this.

Well, if you mean CSS on DVDs, you may need to have the libcss-library if I understood the description right. But that shouldn't be a big problem, since most of us (and I hope also you) have the VLC Media Player in you'r applications folder on your Mac. If so, you have that library needed. I have this myself, and I reccomand you to try it :) Btw, HandBrake can convert a DVD into almost everything :) M.
