libfreemkv
Rust library for 4K UHD / Blu-ray optical drives. Drive access, disc scanning, AACS decryption, and content reading in one crate. Bundled drive profiles — no external files needed.

Quick Start
use ;
use Path;
// Open drive — profiles are bundled, auto-identified
let mut session = open?;
// Scan disc — UDF, playlists, streams, AACS (all automatic)
let disc = scan?;
for title in &disc.titles
// Read content (decrypted transparently if AACS keys available)
let mut reader = disc.open_title?;
while let Some = reader.read_unit?
What It Does
- Drive access — open, identify, unlock for raw reads
- Disc scanning — UDF 2.50 filesystem, MPLS playlists, CLPI clip info, BD-J labels
- AACS decryption — transparent key resolution and content decrypt (1.0 + 2.0)
- Content reading — sector reads with automatic decryption
AACS decryption requires a KEYDB.cfg file. If available at ~/.config/aacs/KEYDB.cfg or passed via ScanOptions, the library handles everything — handshake, key derivation, and per-sector decryption — without the application needing to know anything about encryption.
Architecture
DriveSession — open, identify, unlock, read sectors
├── ScsiTransport — SG_IO (Linux), IOKit (macOS)
├── DriveProfile — per-drive unlock parameters (bundled)
└── Platform — MediaTek (supported), Renesas (planned)
Disc — scan titles, streams, AACS state
├── UDF reader — Blu-ray UDF 2.50 with metadata partitions
├── MPLS parser — playlists → titles + clips + streams
├── CLPI parser — clip info → EP map → sector extents
├── JAR parser — BD-J audio track labels
└── AACS — key resolution + content decryption

Error Codes
All errors are structured with numeric codes. No user-facing English text — applications format their own messages.

|---|---|
| E1xxx | Device errors (not found, permission) |
| E2xxx | Profile errors (unsupported drive) |
| E3xxx | Unlock errors (failed, signature) |
| E4xxx | SCSI errors (command failed, timeout) |
| E5xxx | I/O errors |
| E6xxx | Disc format errors |
| E7xxx | AACS errors |
Platform Support
| Platform | Status | Backend |
|---|---|---|
| Linux | Supported | SG_IO ioctl |
| macOS | Supported | IOKit SCSITask |
| Windows | Planned | SPTI |
