    hi im new to downloading movies from the internet, and im not even sure if this is the right place for this thread, but i followed a guide on here for downloading movies to the comp from internet using video downloader on firefox, the movie successfully downloaded- but when i played the movie, it said " this disc has been digitally watermarked to identify you" and something about do not sell, rent, or copy this disc. does this mean that it can be traced to identify me or the person who uploaded the movie? i dont know exactly what this means....

    Something unusual is happening with me today...
    It means you have a DVD Screener. The watermark is there to identify the uploader...

    ok, thanks for youe reply, i was researching it online and they were talking about using the watermarks to trace people who are downloading these movies as well, so thats not true? its only used to trace the uploader?

    closed due to piracy issues. expect a call from your internet provider about that download.
