A lot of people are having an issue with something called "Cinavia" when they play videos on the PS3



Here are a few things you should know about Cinavia:



Cinavia is a digital rights management system created by Verance. It requires two parts to work: a proprietary imperceptible audio watermark, and a piece of hardware which is able to detect that watermark. Known hardware which can detect Cinavia watermarks include the PlayStation 3 (Began With V3.10 System Software), as well as newer Blu-ray players. Cinavia is not detected in a DTS audio stream on PS3 (Must have HDMI w/DTS receiver). [1]



In my own words, Cinavia is a lot like Shazam for movies (specifically movies that aren't out in the US on Dvd) - it detects the audio in movies like Shazam does for music - if the audio matches that of a movie still in theaters or not yet released on dvd in the US - it cancels out the sound of the movie thus making the movie unwatchable

----HOW TO BYPASS IT----



Many people have tried to bypass Cinavia using methods of fixing the audio such as normalizing, adaptive noise canceling and other methods along with cutting the video into split parts of 15 minutes each.

BUT - YOU DON'T NEED TO DO THAT! -

All you have to do is DISCONNECT the console from the internet BEFORE you play your movie.

To make this double effective - go to your "settings" then go to "internet connection" and "disable" your internet connection to avoid from your PS3 trying to contact the Cinavia servers to match the sound of the movie.

and then you're done! easy as that.



If you are trying to do this with a movie that has been already been identified, change the video title on your PC to something random, and then try again.



TO TEST IF YOUR PS3 WILL BLOCK OUT THE MOVIE:

Wait 30 minutes into the movie and if Cinavia doesn't do anything to your video then SUCCESS!!
