Yes, I believe the creative dvd bundled mpeg1&2 decoder card performs the decryption. It is possible (but probably not legal) to change the region supported by the card many many times by writing some info to a flashrom on the card. DVD under linux is possible, however am not sure if it is 100% legal. I am not sure if DVD-ROMS support two different access methods - normal and dvd .
