I struggled getting DVD Decrypter to work with my FC3 X64 install using Codeweaver's Crossover 5.0. The older version would allow you to edit the conf file and set the application to "nt40" so you could use your DVD drive(s) via SPTI. 5.0 does not allow this approach.
I now have DVD Decrypter working by using this command on a win2000 bottle I named "nt40". Run the command from a user terminal not root.
*/~/cxoffice/bin/wine --bottle name_of_your_bottle --wl-app winecfg
so for me it was */~/cxoffice/bin/wine --bottle nt40 --wl-app winecfg
When winecfg starts go to the Application tab and "add" an application. It will allow you to find the Dvd Decrypter.exe and than gives you choices for which windows OS to associate. nt40 will allow the program to see your dvd drives. Be sure the dvd is mounted prior to starting Decryptor. I hope this will be helfull to Crossover users. Also DVDShrink works fine on my setup.
