Your instructions detail how you use both DeCSS and a patch to make
your drive code-free.  But DeCSS obviates the need for a code-free
drive - at least I'm able to watch various CSS-encrypted DVD's from
different regions with xine and the decss plugin, while the
pre-installed Windows player software still works.
