We found two workarounds: disable SIP and a more complicated but recommended way from a Reddit user (as below). But note that there is one more step for installing libdvdcss on Mac El Capitan, because of its SIP (System Integrity Protection), which is said to remove libdvdcss by default. Step 2: Double click the downloaded file to install libdvdcss on Mac. Step 1: Download libdvdcss.pkg on Mac OS. How to Download Install libdvdcss on Mac for HandBrake

Only VLC/Handbrake can do video-file encoded/re-encode to a video-file without a DVD **** OH YOU WILL NEED A DVD/RW, even if its an external for your MAC *** MacTheRipper for OSX v4.1 is NATIVE M1 (after 2.2.4 is free but after that, newer version is not free now, but donation PAYWARE model, ) MakeMKV for OSX (can front end for backend Handbrake/VLC in the Options) M1/ProMax supported native!

So Id recommend HANDBRAKE over paying for this… The FREE version of MacXDVD is LIMITED to 5min No mention of NATIVE M1/Pro/Max (just UNIVERSAL 64bit all core/cpu encoding) (biased to sell you software) & NOT M1 NATVE, but 64bit emulation of UNIVERSAL translation, so SLOW! Im not sure of encoding speed being optimised for M1/Pro/Max as I use HANDBRAKE as its pretty easy to use with lots of online help for the complete noob! M1/ProMax supported native! The other FREE alt is VLC (also native now) that will rip a DVD. Handbrake >1.4 Released with Apple M1 Support & optimisations but encoding you need to select the M1/Pro/Max VIDEOTOOLBOX 264/5 CODEC and encoding will go from 30fps to >300-600fps (M1>Pro>MAX) ~ You may need to find and add the DVD decode DLL to rip a DVD (Im not sure about decoding BRAY as I only do the odd DVD backup to MP4/MKV) ~ its free, its awesome and with the encoding tip you will love the M1/ProMax supported native! ALL THE INFO YOU NEED FOR OSX/UNIVERSAL 64BIT & M1/PRO/MAX NATIVE ~ FREE/PAYWARE DONATION OPTIONS
