Here's what you do. Pop in your protected disc, start playing it with something like PowerDVD, WinDVD, etc. and then close it. Then use CD Speed to run the tests.
I wonder if the procedure will have any effect on speed up the ripping of D/L disk that we are trying to copy?. If so, do we have to go through this steps each time we are trying to copy a D/L DVD Video?.
